"Arizona Jewel"

I love Fountain Hills. The views are awesome. I have vertigo so it's hard to drive myself through the hills and valleys but the views alone are worth the trek. Everyone I know living there are mostly well off so they don't need to trek to work full time on a daily basis. Retirees do well here. If you can support yourself working from home you can do well here. The arts festival and community events are great. It's not affordable for the majority but if you can afford it its a welcome breath of fresh air in Arizona. Secluded enough but still very accessible. Hospitals and shopping closeby and not completely closed off. Don't be in a hurry to go anywhere though because it is a hike from airport and city. Still do-able. Love Love Love it's quaint downtown, roads and overall I love all things Fountain Hillside!
I am a personal Caribbean cook in people's homes breaking into the Fountain Hills area and I love the reception so far!
