Chino Valley, AZ

Small town, outdoor fun
As of 2017 population is ~10k. Have a talk to the barber to learn the goings on. Lots of farms and ranches. Most homes on 1 acre lots.
In my opinion most are not tech savvy or wealthy and are here because of low cost of living, simple and nice people, and peaceful life style. Plenty of state land and trails to walk, hike, and bike. Very dog friendly. Several lakes to play on and creeks to walk through.
Monsoon July-Aug so very IMPORTANT to view flood maps to learn if your home, property, and road is on the water drainage flow. Often not a problem but knowledge is important. Some backyards are underwater during Monsoon. After saying the above I like the monsoon weather but that is me.
Most food, clothes, hardware and other shopping options are just 20 min away.
CV is restful and a pleasant place to relax and play.
