Moving to Arizona

[fencefixer]

We're considering making the move from Ohio, mostly due to medical reasons. Wife's ready to get into nursing, there seem to be plenty hospitals, I can work from pretty much anywhere in the country. With my son's medical problems and all we'd benefit from that as well.


We're going to go there next year for a week to check it out and first look for a rental property; not buy a house right away.


Question for you residents there.. San Tan Valley/Gilbert/East Mesa/Casa Grande/Chandler/Maricopa those seem to be offering the kind of climate we're looking for. What's your take on those areas? Would like some input regarding the people/economy/school system and every day life, etc. The more knowledge I can gather ahead of time the better.
