@livinginarizonanow Is Paradise Valley a conservative stalwart? Do you know if there are any liberal enclaves within Paradise Valley/ Scottsdale? Your videos are wonderful and Arizona is exquisite!
Paradise valley is definitely stunning. I always keep an extra eye out for the photo radar traps that are all over. Lol specially the ones hidden in the 🌵
I’m watching from Los Angeles and moving out there next week!! So glad to find your channel and get a feeling of the area as I know nothing other than LA hustle and bustle life. Your videos offer me lots a great historical info and activities and sites to check out. Thank you so much for taking the time to do these videos. It really helps people like myself 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️
I'm from Paradise Valley and we moved to Pismo Beach right before covid hit. Moved back to wait it out. I think we may just spend part of our time there maybe starting next summer. Hopefully things will be better by then. 😷😌
I moved into the Paradise Valley area in 1996, and rented an AMAZING home just across from the North Phoenix Mountain Preserve. Coming from CA; little did I know the heat wave of temps over 100 degress lasts from May 21 - October 5. Somehow I adjusted to the long hot summers, thank God for swimming pools, local gyms and big shopping malls. I started college at Paradise Valley, best decision of my life. What was the best decision of your life?
I am watching from Cali Colombia South America. I retired here. Lived in Mesa Arizona 43 years but I do like watching your videos from my old home. Don't miss the summer heat but do miss my family members still in Arizona. Going to visit Arizona as soon as the covid 19 settles down.
Thank you so much for this video. Makes me miss living in PV! Your videos are very informative and detailed. This video in particular I’ve watched probably 100 times since I stumbled upon your channel about a year ago. Keep up the great work!!
This video and the ambience music is perfection! It’s a whole vision board video! I’m just mediating on manifesting this Paradise Valley as my future reality! I love it so much I put it on the big screen and showed my family. Keep up the beautiful work as always, Jay!
P.V was originally one house per acre but the town council has allowed so many condos and town houses to accompany commercial resorts that residents on less than one acre will soon outnumber residents on one acre. Town council has also solicited commercial resorts which have brought traffic, noise and transients, all of which are killing the goose that laid the golden egg. The hilarious part about the council members is that they are continually giving each other awards, etc.
Now in the ( ish ) Midwest. But, lived in PHX for 12 yrs. At first we lived in a condo a few blocks from PV. I remember seeing those homes in the mountains, around Camelback! OMG. the life! Oh! We also were there during the ' Keating five ' scandal!!!! Do believe ole Keating and his whole clan had a mansion in Camelback area! That debacle ALSO included Sen John McCain! Ahhh yes. The filthy rich! 😏
We lived in PV, in an apartment, it was alright. We much prefer CG to retire, everything is near by, shopping, a wonderful park with a lake and waterfall, and the traffic isn’t nuts, it gets a bit busy with the snow birds but not too bad
Jack J We welcome you with open arms! Just be smart and don’t vote for people who run things like they do in LA because we don’t want to be LA East. It’s gonna be a great move for you too since your house is probably worth a lot and you could buy a nicer house down here. Take care.
Jack J, we moved to Paradise Valley when the rules for staying in Panama changed. We loved Paradise Valley, and made some great friends in the dog park, by the school, but our apartment complex was crappy, and very expensive and had too many bugs.... You will have a great time in Paradise Valley, welcome! We then moved to Casa Grande, which has a wonderful retirement community. We are going to future summer in Show Low, which is in the NE, in the cool white mountains, after this hot summer.
Jack J I could tell. We need more people like you in the Phoenix metro area. Unfortunately we get a lot of people from Cali who don’t see the patterns and make the same mistakes they made in their home state. Well anyways, I hope you are ready for the heat. 😂 It’s not that bad if you have a pool to cool off in and if you ever get sick of it you can always a couple hours drive up north and enjoy the cooler air and scenery just like Mary does.
Wow so gorgeous!!! I always thought that the most expensive place to live there was Sedona followed by North Scottsdale. I had no clue about PV. Two weeks ago we went driving around Troon North and I saw those speeding camera boxes and was quite shocked. I’m surprised my stupid CA don’t have these everywhere. But we got the ones on the signal lights almost everywhere. Thanks Jeff for this beautiful glimpse of PV!❤️
I moved from Peoria Arizona back to Hutchinson Kansas I lived in Peoria for 11 years and my mom passed away so I had to move back to Kansas but I love Arizona
From Jersey here, to be brutally honest, usually love your AZ videos, but sorry man this ones just not cutting it.. we want information on PV not just a drive by with eery murder mystery background music..lol.. Give us details and narration on PV like things to do, trails, where people bike, shop, eat, etc..
PV is mostly residential, neuvo rich and old rich. Some very expensive homes, some not so expensive. I have worked in a number of homes in PV. You can hike Camelback. He showed the golf resort. There are only a few restaurants in PV proper like Marriott Camelback, other resort restaurants, and El Chorro which is worth the visit and a very old restaurant built in 1937. I took care of a very old lady who told me that she and a girlfriend would ride their horses to El Chorro in the 1040's and that the horses would take them home when they got too drunk. PV is a small area but there is plenty of surrounding area, nearby restaurants, trailheads, shopping, malls, whole foods, farmer's markets, too much to list. There is quick access to NE PHX, Scottsdale, Central PHX so as long a you have a car, there are plenty of things to do within a 5 mile radius, any direction. Of course, the main thing, do not visit between June and Oct, if you're not used to the heat, and do not hike once it's past about 85f and drink triple the water that you think you need hiking or not.
Diary: Moving to “Paradise” was a tragic mistake. People here are... sick. I hear gunshots, screams after dark. Now the phone calls, sayin’ i’m being thrown outta this house. My house. Wearing a kelvar vest and carrying a sidearm at all times now.
I'm from Rochester, NY and I'm thinking about moving to Arizona. I do have family there but first I need to visit there to see how it is. And what part of Arizona do I want to live in.
Kernica1 There are wonderful apps such as freecampsites.net and campedium that can help you choose sites along with some collateral research. Sometimes it is a surprise when you get there. I like camping in the quiet, too, and chose national forest land mainly, sometimes BLM or a very quiet, remote state campgrounds and avoid weekends. Flagstaff is getting very chilly overnight but the stars were so bright tonight and the elk were about. It is hunting season now. There are dispersed sites along Stoneman Lake road, SE of Flagstaff off I-17, with a maze of roads. I happen to get an internet connection there with Verizon 2 bars. It is kind of crazy to be talking to Boston lying in a hammock in that setting! It is about an hour to Flagstaff and Sedona from there. When it cools a little more, Forest route 535, far outside Sedona is a wonderful place to camp at with the better views toward the end. West Fork has a long road in near Alpine ending in a campground near the Black River (stream) where they do some minor fishing and it is nice to listen to at night. Some burned areas. Free with bathrooms. I carry water jugs and refill them at water machines outside supermarkets when I go for ice unless I can get from a stream and filter, etc. Use what you feel you need to be safe out there alone. I hope this helps. Have fun.
A couple of updates. PV is not a city, it's official designation is a town. The minimum lot size in PV is an acre. An empty lot - just the dirt goes for a million. The house is extra. The town is big on photo radar for traffic/speed enforcement. The town has also put cameras at each street entrance/exit to record license plates coming and going.
Nice and Creative Videos， This is really my favorite channle.:). I really glad to see your post and your world was so brilliant. 🌴🌴🌴 excellent and Much appreciated!!🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 from: Paradise Valley Town Maricopa
P.V. Is incorporated as a 'town.' Frankly, I'm not sure about the legal ramifications of this distinction. I reside in the town of Paradise Valley. Ha, was watching to see if my house was featured in this video. Husband and I live behind one of the few gated areas within Paradise Valley.
Those people living on sidewalks in America, either have substance or mental issues or both. There is no equality in being addicted, but there should be help for these problems......handing them other people's hard earned wages will not solve a thing.
@@arnoldziffle8779 I always say "there but for the grace of God go I", no one said hand them your money, however, no one knows what brought them to this place, therefore, in my opinion, I say it is important to also not judge. I am a trained counselor who worked with the dually diagnosed in Phx, post acute crisis care. They do not choose to be mentally ill and some do not "choose" to be addicts, and not all homeless are either. There are services in Phx, but they are not the greatest and some do live on the street by choice. I do not feel sorry for them, but I do not judge, and some, by virtue of their circumstances, are criminals, so I do steer clear from most when I'm just out on the street. Dealing with this population in a professional setting is different. Do stay away from Indian School at night, that area is crime haven at night...It's also very close to the State Hospital.
@@lileelisamc.4722 I don't wish to sound crass. There are outpatient services, but no real long term help. We need inpatient long term care for some, the idea we allow them to roam the streets on their own recognizance is ridiculous and surely not humane.
