One thing I love about Florence, Arizona is the small-town feel it has. People are friendly, and there are many places in this town where you will see familiar faces. I know all of my neighbors and they are very kind people. I see them walking their dogs outside and they say hello. Often, I walk my dog or ride my bike, and they stop me to have a conversation. I go to the grocery store and recognize the cashiers and the patrons. In Florence, we have a local Sprout's farmers market and I love spending my time there. I would like to see more diversity in this town. It is majority white, and I would feel much more comfortable and connected if there were more people belonging to marginalized identities here.
Florence is a small town in Arizona, more like a country environment, there is a lot of land and a lot of building going on. Becuase of them barely building the town the cost of living is pretty cheap. Most people pay aroun $1,000- 1,200 for homes with lots of land and at least 4 bedrooms!
Great small-town vibe. Friendly neighbors and lots of community activities. Overall a great town to live in.
