I’ve decided with my wife to leave California within a year or two after we figure a few things out. It’s between Phoenix and Dallas for us. Great video !
Choose Az we lived in Scottsdale for years and now were in the DFW🤦🏾♀️I miss Az but my husband got a job opportunity in 2017 so we moved our oldest graduated from high school in Scottsdale also. The DFW is okay but growing up in Philly this is not the South I remember and I don’t like it
It’s amazing new learning for me to know even black people get terrified of hot weather given the recent ancestry is from Africa. Means we get used to the places we live in.
Your timing definitely aligns with mine as I also moved here three years ago from Southern California. I'm glad that a fence is required for houses with a pool. Also, for #3 (car maintenance), I can't recommend how important it is to park your car inside a garage if you have one as opposed to using that space for storage.
OMG...That heat will KILL your car... the paint, battery, tires, windshield wiper and everything else! You car is sitting in 110+ degree heat for months! Take their advice seriously! Great video!!!!
Welcome to Arizona! My family has been here since before Arizona was a state and I don't plan on moving soon. It's a great state for families and there is so much to do. As long as you drive respectfully you will have no quarrels with the locals.
Yeah, no lie, the tremendous heat is very hard on a vehicle. Your battery won't last as long as the heat is hard on any rubber parts (tires, hoses, belts, windshield wipers), and paint.
More like don’t move May thru Oct unless you don’t mind sweating. Regarding pools, in AZ the law requires fencing for a pool if any child living in the home is under age 6. If you’re looking at a property is a HOA make sure you read the CC&Rs and Design Guidelines first. You might not be allowed to park in the street overnight or have a portable basketball hoop. Just a couple examples of things you might not realize would be an issue for you.
I’m planning on moving to the Phoenix area after my son graduates from high school next year. I am thinking of renting just because I’ll probably be making the move alone and don’t want the responsibility of a home.
My husband and I want to retire to AZ. But we're trying to figure out some logistics. He retires in another year. I retire in 4 years. We want to keep our home here in CA and rent it to traveling medical professionals. In AZ, we want to buy multifamily and live in one unit. Looking forward to the change. I just need to figure out how to do it.
Whoops! My husband and I are moving to Arizona in July (from Guam) 😂 We’re used to 89-95 degree humid heat all year round from the tropical islands but haven’t experienced 100+ degree dry heat yet. Wish us luck!
In Phoenix az the heat island effect Isn't caused by asphalt and concrete ut is caused by air conditioners and swimming pools, daily watered landscaped yards and shrubs and trees Research a traditional desert environment You will see that the humidity created by the pools and landscaped yards create massive amounts of humidity when traditionally there was none,. Now your air conditioner puts out massive amounts of heat to help keep your house at 80F Go stand by the fan and feel the air that it is pumping in and around your home. Now multiply that by 7 million,. Your automobile also adds to the heat for it puts out over 200 degree temps everytime you start and drive it,. Plus the number of people,. You add more people you add more heat,. So Arizona would have bearable temps if you got rid of the people, the autos that they drive, the air conditioners, the swimming pools, the landscaped yards, all the daily watered shrubs and bushes,. Beyond that phoenix might be livable,. But life in the desert humans need to adapt to the desert not the other way around,. That's what we have been trying to do and it don't work Look at the native creatures that survive in the desert,. They are nocturnal,. They live down in the ground, not build 2 story homes,. But humans we enact laws to keep you from making noise between 11 pm and 5 am,. Which is about the only time where you can function out side without worrying about heat strikes. Makes no sense,. From the 1990 to present they say that an average of 184 people moved here daily,. Look at the incarceration numbers during that timetime
No offense, but all of you moving from California has ruined our Phoenix! It is become the land of the overpriced, people are finding it harder to find employment here, as well as being able to forward to live here. Also, the way that people are voting here for the policies they want to see in place are the same policies that they ran from. Don’t make our Arizona California. I’ve lived here since 1984, I have watched Arizona grow by leaps and bounds and I feel sorry for anyone that moves here because you’re not going to be able to afford to live here anymore. You talk about the rents being high here, there is high now as they are in LA. $3000 for a studio apartment in some cases? That’s not affordable nor is that sustainable. The Colorado river which we get most of our water from is drying up. How do you think Phoenix is going to sustain without water? Let’s use Vegas as an example. If it wasn’t for Lake Mead Las Vegas could not exist.we are in trouble in the southwest when it comes to water. We will not be able to sustain the rate of growth much longer no matter what anyone says.
Thats stupid. The hottest time could provide more opportunities for one looking to settle. Why come when its “convenient” which most lemmings or followers like to do🤷🏿♂️
Soon to be Veteran in March with a family of 5. Ill definitely be contacting you the closer we get to March!

Nice!! Make sure to call me. I'd love to guide you thru the process. Look into Dallas's property tax compared to Arizona's.

Your review is so sincere, you guys seem so genuine and gave some really insightful information.
Livin in Yuma, it was around 115 to 117 degrees almost every day, and don't forget Monsoon Season...

I've been in Phoenix for 3yrs now and moved from Long Beach, CA..I still miss CA but I'm slowly getting used to PHX.

+Marin husky Yes its definitely been an experience..

Great video!!
So many residents love this state. The most beautiful state I have ever seen .
I love your video. Very helpful 😊
Thank you! 😊
I’m planning on moving to the Phoenix area after my son graduates from high school next year. I am thinking of renting just because I’ll probably be making the move alone and don’t want the responsibility of a home.
+Nicki Hendrix You’d be surprised with what you can get when you purchase!!😊
Most pool owners I know spend more time and money maintaining it than playing in it.
❤ I’m also looking to move to Arizona sometime next month or March
+shakena robertson Great!! Call me!
People can’t drive worth sh$t here.
It’s hot as Christian hell in the summer. All day and night it’s hot.
