Review of Rio Rico, Arizona

Quiet Community in the Hills
Star Rating - 9/3/2019
We retired here from Maine about 5 years ago to leave the cold & damp behind. Here it is warm & dry most of the time, little humidity, not many flies, mosquitoes, etc. Also very quiet with large lots for a lot of privacy unlike Green Valley where it's like living in the suburbs- houses jammed in everywhere! We have beautiful mountain views too & the altitude of about 3500' makes it cooler here than in the Valley. But we don't have all the infrastructure that GV has- no community pools, activities, etc. Home prices are considerably lower too. Neighbors are cordial but not overbearing so it can be a bit lonesome. But if you don't mind that, then you'll enjoy it here. We do!

Does anyone know the best area to live in Rio Rico, as in east, west, north or south side of the town? Are there any homeless there? How about the drug problem, is there a large drug population there? I'm thinking of moving there from Tucson, AZ. Any advice would be most appreciated. Thank you.

Thanks for the information. We currently live in San Diego county, but have purchased some property there to get away from the overcrowding here in California. Hope to see you all soon. God Bless
