These are great insights! I am not an expert on vertical farming but will look for one to have on the channel.

Very interesting perspective. I personally live in Central Phoenix and love it 😊

Thanks for your insights! Are you currently in Phoenix or hoping to move from it?

I see what you did there haha. I'm sorry to hear about your experience. I have had many clients purchase with them and be very happy.

@@heidilittleton Sales people were great. I wasn’t expecting value beyond what I paid. My review is on google under Vidrio.

Absolutely! I love that there are so many locations throughout the Valley to choose from.

I don't think every part is filthy. There are lots of areas of the Valley that are very beautiful and clean.

I think that would be near impossible. There is a mix of political beliefs in every city. Best of luck with that goal.

I talk about a lot of different areas in this video. It’s a general Phoenix Metro video. Is there a specific area you’re curious about?

That's a great plan! What made you choose Tucson?

@@heidilittleton It is a place my wife hadn''t been before; but has had several friends talk about it. I had been down there a handful of times during work. I come to Phoenix somewhat regularly for work (I'll actually be coming there this Tuesday); my wife has come with on a few of those trips. My guess is there is the feeling that Phoenix is massively large.

@@campingalan Yes! If you're used to a smaller city, Phoenix can feel VERY large. I know my mother-in-law feels that way often. The key is finding a community that feels "small town" like Verrado or Estrella Mountain.

@@heidilittleton thank you very much for the locations!! I am only in Phoenix tomorrow for 1 night (bringing my boss there for the Rolling Stones concert). I will try to go check out one of those areas!

There have been conversations about building apartments but I know there is some pushback. You can find single family homes for rent though.

@@heidilittleton thanks for the quick response. Closing on a house now in Estrella, but was always curious on future development on apartments there and have not been able to find anything online.

@@8javi5 Congratulations on the new home! 🎉

What do you think is making that area a sh*t show? It seems like the South Scottsdale area is continuing to develop.

@@heidilittleton It's devolved into a libertarian hell scape. Arizona has lost a percent of it's educated professionals in the past year. I feel like the state has sacrificed it's long term stability for short term gains. There's a dozen property management companies being sued for price fixing. It seems like half of my old neighborhood is air bnb's. Who the hell would want to buy a house that was used as an air BNB? Might as well tear it down and start over. There's a very good reason why homes for decades in the valley could not be used as short term rentals. This was my home. People moved here because it was fairly quiet and nice. People don't move to the valley anymore because it's nice. They move here because they hand out guns in vending machines, you can smoke weed and gamble. I'm actually a pretty conservative guy. But I like Katie Hobbs and her team. I just hope she can get this house in order. I'll watch from the TV.

@@IanCarroll-cz7fk It's been interesting watching the AirBNB saga. Many communities are actually no longer allowing them or they must be longer term like 30+ days. I'm personally using AirBNB less when I travel due to their crazy added fees. It will be interesting to see if it is sustainable as is for the long-term.

I left phoenix area after 58 yrs. I moved to PA, and absolutely love it here. We have seasons here! And lots of green forests! So sick of the desert!

Thank you so much for the kind words! What's interesting you in moving to Goodyear instead of Surprise?

This is great feedback! Is there a particular area of the Valley you'd be interested in RV parks at?

@@heidilittleton 25 miles from Phoenix, nice parks only. Thanks

This is the first time I’ve ever heard anyone with this comment lol. It’s refreshing!

I wish I had a good answer for that. I know another company is planning to build that pipeline.

Thank you for the kind compliment!

It really is! So many great amenities!

How are you Heidi let’s chat sometime soon

Congrats on the new job! :) What area of the Valley will you be moving to?

You have a lot of opinions about this shithole. :)

I hope you don’t live here. You clearly hate it!

No...I don't think that's what I said. We can keep some of the crops but I think looking into otehr options for watering them is a good solution.

Yes most of our personal use is for outside like pools and watering plants. I'll be curious to see how this shifts as less people get pools. I saw a recent stat (don't want to quote it inaccurately) but it showed a decline in the number of homes in the Valley with a pool, particularly the new construction homes.

You’re welcome! Glad it was helpful.

These are great insights! Thanks for sharing. Which state are you living in now?

@@heidilittleton I currently live in San Diego, the place everyone in Arizona visits.

@@markwrona hahah yes we do love to visit there! It is beautiful!

If you watched the whole video, I did share that some areas ARE experiencing real water shortages and that this needs to be addressed. I by no means claim to be a water expert nor am I an expert in every single city in Arizona. In Phoenix itself, the homes that are currently being built have an AWS certificate mean they have at least a 100 year supply of water. Obviously this can change at any time as our climate and growth changes, but this is based on the information that is available TODAY.

Glad you liked it!! I hope it was helpful.

Coming from you...that is truly the highest compliment! Thank you so much :) It really is a touchy subject!

Go Rick!

Hi! That question is a bit difficult to answer without knowing your whole financial picture, like other debts. The median home price in Yuma is $340k.

Hi! That question is a bit difficult to answer without knowing your whole financial picture, like other debts. The median home price in Yuma is $340k. It would be best to connect with a mortgage lender to look at your options. Feel free to reach to me and I’d be happy to connect you.

Hi dear Heidi, A couple of weeks ago I contact you for let you know the great video you made, besides that I took advantage to ask you a question: if it would be possible survive, my wife, me and 2 toddlers with just one income, $12.80 x 40 hours per week. so please I hope you can help me to reach an a mortage lender in order to have a better idea. Besides that, can I have the cost for this mortage lender? Thabks in advance

I hope you find the best place for you.

Yes some people move here for the more conservative views. However, AZ does have a mix of political views as we've seen the state become more purple and become a swing state.

I think that will depend on who you ask. I have family that lives in CA as well as multiple clients who have moved here and the pollution is BAD in CA...worse than AZ. I will say, I have noticed more pollution in the 13 years I've lived here as our city grows but it's no where near CA.

Well that's certainly your opinion. I think most are just looking for a better quality of life and for their money to go further :)

@@heidilittleton We all want a better quality of life. But they seem to move to place with a better quality of life, then try to change that new place, by voting for all the crazy stuff that ruined California’s quality of life in the first place. Maybe if the majority of Californians that moved, came to their new state or place with humbleness and gratitude, people would welcome them. Instead they come in, throw money around, vote to change everything to make it like more like the California that they left behind.

Yes respect goes a long way!

An hour each way is just crazy! I think the average here is 30 mins or less. I don't think we will have another 2008 for a number of reasons. We don't have an oversupply of homes like we did in 2008. We also don't have lenders out here doing whatever they want to get people into homes which was a HUGE issues in 2008. Also, at least here in AZ, the majority of our homes are owner occupied vs in 2008 it was investors flipping to investors flipping to investors and in the end, they had no one to live in them.

@@heidilittleton also, the money printers are about to turn on soon. If a crash doesn't happen soon, it won't happen this cycle.

I think that’s one of the benefits of living in the US. There’s diversity of views in every state 😀

Where is that at? Does seem high for a 2 bedroom depending on the location.

🤣🤣 man do Arizonans hate Californias. I always find it amusing that nobody says this about Washington (21k people) nor Texas (17k people)

No really it's not just Californians we don't want anymore people coming here! Everyone that comes cause they didn't like certain things about where they lived before! And then try to change the way we do things to match the places they just left! Or they'll knowingly move next to A race track then complain about the noise, and make it their life's work getting the track shut down!!! Or next to A horse rescue then complain about the smell and try to say it's A health risk to try and get it shut down!! Transplants were successful in halting the rebuilding of an iconic landmark restaurant the Mining Camp! Cause people who'd only lived close to the restaurant "A major tourist stop and A huge part of our cultural history not to mention economy" for A few years prior to its unfortunate burning down! Complained about the congestion on the road and the noise cause oh ya it also had a bar and barn that were used to host country weddings, as well as the smell! The smell? What those people have something against smelling the absolute Best BBQ Beef Ribs and smoked Brisket? Then there's the "GUNS" issue! Look if you hate the 2nd amendment and the sight of seeing 1 out every 5 people you see in public open carrying makes you uncomfortable or feel unsafe? Then you shouldn't come here! Cause quite honestly I feel alone safer when I see my fellow neighbor's carrying around me. We're the type of people that'll defend strangers like you in dangerous situations, and yal wanna come here and try to change the way we do things around here, and we're all getting pretty fed up with it! But all that kind of drama aside. Let's talk about the many many different creatures in AZ that'll fuck you up! Cause we're like the Australia of the United States here. We've got like 13 or 15 species of Scorpions or was it Rattlesnakes? Either way there's 13-15 of each Scorpions and or Rattlesnakes. Then there's the Brown recluse spider who's neckratizing venom eats away at your flesh! They lay eggs inside they're bite marks sometimes. We have Black Widows and Arizona Browns. Centipedes the size of small snakes. Wild havalina aka wild bores/Pigs. Gila monsters with poisonous saliva that can kill you. Vicious mean Badgers. Raccoons, Skunks, Kudamundi's, Mt. Lions, Black Bears, Coyotes, Eagles, Hawk's, and Owls all of whom will snatchup your smaller pets to eat them! Oh and Wasps so big they'll kill tarantulas 8 times they're size and drag them back to they're underground nest where they'll eat part of them and save the rest for the eggs she's about to lay inside the spider so the young have food when they hatch! We have sewer roaches the size of Hummingbirds that will have no problem flying straight at your face. Did I mention that the rattlesnakes will swim right up onto your boat, they'll climb your trees and cactus, you'll find them at your front door in your garage sometimes your toilet and even in your vehicle and pool! If you don't already know what A Haboob is? I'd look it up! Oh ya and one last thing we don't have any water! We do but we don't.
