I love the weather here. So many people complain about it being to hot, but I love walking outside and feeling the heat on my body. I love feeling the wind as I'm driving and I love going to the movie theater. I just love the overall atmosphere. Most people I encounter are polite although there are some exceptions. Although I love living here, I do wish that people would stay home during this pandemic. Whenever I walk outside, I see the same amount of cars I saw before the pandemic. I still see people partying and eating out. The drivers here are also terrible. People never use their blinker lights and I constantly see people getting cut off on the road. Despite all the negative things I said, I still love Maricopa County and I want to stay here for as long as possible.
Love the people here and the weather (except for summer) is great! Lots of opportunities for job growth and great universities. Housing market is still affordable and neighborhoods are family friendly
The thing that I like about Maricopa County is that it is a diverse place and a lot of people are moving here.One thing that I would change from this place is that I would make sure that some areas would be cleaner and there are some people that makes this place unfriendly, but that is in every single neighborhood.
