Review of Prescott, Arizona

Star Rating - 1/2/2016
WOW! I'm a bit confused. I see someone name Matt, Carol, In Unbelief stating nothing but negativity about Prescott. Sounds almost like NIGHTMARE On ELM STREET. Yet other have posted beautiful reviews of this city. I sure like the conservative view and values and of course pro-gunners as I enjoy hunting even at my age. My husband and I are trying to sell our 2100 sq ft, 9 acre in Benson and I would love to move closer to the Northern end of AZ, closer to Calif border and some friends in Topock. I guess I'll have to do a lot more research and contact perhaps Calvary Church in that area to get some in person, honest views or contact another reviewer. We'll come up this spring to spend some time there and check it out. Thank you for all the rveiws

The better reviews you’re seeing come from people with at least one thing in common: plenty of money. Do real research at the US Census Bureau, US Dept of Labor, Yavapai County clerk, City Data, and those crime websites (the comments about the Courier under-covering crime are true). Do ask locals, but find people who do *not* have some special interest/something to gain by your moving here.

I was born and raised here in town and this is still one of the best communities. Has it changed over time? Sure, but what town hasn't. The people here are great and I work in real estate and here from my clients all the time how happy they are to have made the move. Our 4 distinct seasons and weather is the best, we are surrounded by national forest, summers are beautiful, we're the Christmas Town, and our little town has great history.
