Anyone familiar with Phoenix AZ area?

[64met]

Will be commuting to Phoenix beginning in May. Planning a trip late April to look at areas, but was hopeful someone here can help. I am looking at Desert Ridge area and Deer Valley area for my apartment. Biggest priority is to be near work with short commute. I have mapped both areas and I am within 10-15 minutes of work.

Any local insight is appreciated.... would like to be near a gym, restaurants, grocery/pharmacy, etc.

Thank you,

RTR!

Can't help you, sorry. Visit Joe Arpaio while you're there. Looks like a beautiful place.

I had heard that Phoenix was the kidnapping capitol of the US but maybe that's not true.

I just read today that Joe has a very good vegetarian diet for those incarcerated in Phoenix.

Sorry, that didn't help answer the original question..
