The only real difference between the two is that Prescott has character and PV doesn’t, but PV is quieter. If PV would fix up the ramshackle buildings along 69 it would greatly improve the look of the area. I’ve owned homes in both and currently live in PV, because I couldn’t take dealing with downtown traffic that has invaded it since I moved here in 2010.

@livinginprescott Год назад

I have been hearing lately Mayor Kell is trying to do some beautification projects along the strip malls on Hwy 69. It will take time but will be nice. Many people just drive through the town and don’t realize how nice our Prescott Valley Town Center is. Thanks for watching.

Prescott has been around much longer so you get the more classy older buildings. The courthouse area is just beautiful. Nearby Prescott valley is much newer, but has it's charms as well. I live just East of Prescott valley in Dewey. We have a lot of trees in our neighborhood and a nice golf course with another one across 69 in Quail wood. I really consider Prescott and Prescott valley as one wholesome metro area. I like them both and consider them as one.

My daughter lives in Prescott Valley and bought land there to build a house. However, we like Prescott better and are watching the housing prices hoping they come down. We would love to retire to Prescott, but for now we are stuck behind enemy lines in CA.

@plaguepandemic5651 Год назад

People from CA are why the housing prices are so high. EVERYBODY wants to retire here. Now all I wanna do is move away. Prescott used to have houses for $180,000, now they're much more expensive. Traffic used to be bearable, now it's congested everywhere you go and the roads are beat to hell and full of potholes. Prescott Valley used to be beautiful grassland filled with antelope and now it's literally all corporate housing developments.

Comparing these two is like comparing apples to oranges. The first difference is one is a 'town', the other is a 'city', and the differences continue. Too many to mention but both have pros and cons. The main difference as evidenced in this video - folks in Prescott think way too much of themselves and their city.

What is the average utility bill per month. Summers are warmer and winters bring some snow so my guess would be heating and cooling could be very expensive? I love the area. I've been looking for more than a year now in the Prescott area.

@livinginprescott Год назад

I would say our energy are relatively low in comparison to other states. It’s varies based on age of home, size and efficiency of HVAC systems. That being said our utility cost are far less here than they ever were in Phoenix even on our lowest bills in the valley. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching and let us know if we can help.

Cute video. I'm not caring too much for PV. PV is to Prescott what Orange County is to Los Angeles. Newer construction but lacking a history and a soul.

Just getting out onto the highway is nearly impossible due to the endless stream of cars. Don't people work any more? WTH?

You have to convince the building owners to just gut the interior of the historic buildings. Rip out the knob-and-tube wire and also decommission any fabric-sheathed rubber insulated wire. New feeders for sub-panels should be hand dug under the building wall footing and backfilled with concrete grout reinforced with rebar. Even better would be to use jack and bore under footings.

Its the politics that make each one stand out. Prescott valley while being modern is actually doing things for the youth and promoting those activities for family friendly things to do. Prescott is ran by a bunch of old dried up grumpy people who in my opinion hate children and families. They want to sit around in their retirement years and not lift a finger for the better of the community. Prescott is literally dying of old age with land running out to build on and prices going through the roof, the locals can't afford to live there and those in power are just fine with that.
