Flagstaff and Sedona in the north offer moderate summers and cold winters with lots of snow and great scenery.

Phoenix, with a metropolitan population of over 3M, is now the 5th largest city in the US, attracting residents with its cosmopolitan lifestyle.

Tucson, with a metropolitan population of over 1M and located 120 miles south of Phoenix and 60 miles north of Mexico, offers residents outstanding scenery, great year round weather and a relaxed lifestyle.

There are several towns in the northwest area of Tucson that offer resort style living within easy reach of both Phoenix and Tucson’s downtowns and international airports: the towns of Oro Valley and Marana.

Oro Valley is known as the "Scottsdale of Tucson” and is located around 2600 feet above sea level and less than 10 miles northwest of Tucson. Oro Valley lies between the spectacular Santa Catalina Mountains and the rugged saguaro-studded Tortolita Mountains. The master planned development of Rancho Vistoso is located in the northern part of Oro Valley.

Marana encompasses a large area west of Oro Valley along the I-10 corridor and is located around 2000 feet above sea level, less than 15 miles from Tucson. The master planned development of Dove Mountain is located east of I-10 in the northern part of Marana.
