The nostalgic Old West meets the cosmopolitan New West in these Southwestern cities. It is a magnetic blend. The irresistibly balmy climate is the first of many attractions, and the natural host to outdoor pleasures. We all become outdoor enthusiasts with the natural splendor of the surrounding mountain and desert vistas via horseback, hiking trips, jeep tours and relaxing river floats.

To take advantage of this lifestyle, there are wonderful masterplanned communities throughout the Valley. But first, an explanation of what comprises the Valley of the Sun - it is made up of Maricopa County and the communities including and surrounding Phoenix - Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Carefree, Cave Creek, Glendale, Chandler, Gilbert, Maricopa, Fountain Hills, Tempe, Mesa, Queen Creek, Ahwatukee and others. All wonderful, all with their own personality. I would love to show off these communities to you!
