Hi All,
We are a family of 4 looking for any info about relocating to AZ. We have a 4th and 6th grader who are very into sports so schools and family activities are very important to us. Can anyone give us some suggestions or steer us in a direction of where to begin our search? We don't have to buy a home right away...would prefer to rent until we know our way around and make sure we are in the right area for our family...any thoughts?
Thanks so much!!

Do you like to comute? How far?

How much rent do you plan on paying?

My family and I moved from Tennessee to Arizona. We moved to Surprise and we were there for a year.. WE loved surprise. It has some good schools, it has everything you pretty much need in either walking or driving distance. Your not to far from the ball park if you like to watch football or baseball.... Your not to far from Phoenix. The weather was pretty much hot in the summer but not humidity hot!! It's nice in the winter.. NOT too cold and not to hot! They have sports for the children. My daughter went to countryside elementry.. and loved it! She would still be going there if we didn't move out to buckeye and started home schooling. It might help if you give us some background info on what you are exactly looking for... Hope my post helps.. if not sorry!! i tired.. LOL

oh and Welcome to Arizona!!

Lovin' surprise

The Best of Luck to You ! I had lived in Az for 4 years and the best advice I can give to anyone is take plenty of money with you and do not spend it all so that you can relocate again if needed !
