we want to move, and are looking at various options. one state that seems to come up frequently is arizona. we've checked out job opportunities for dh and they seem plentiful and all over the state.
we would appreciate some input from folks who live there now or have lived there in the past. comments about the people, the schools, the landscape (are there areas that offer a more lush, mountain type feel?), weather (any areas that have more of a seasonal aspect-i can deal with heat, but i would love someplace that gets at least a smattering of snow), any areas you would recommend for a family with children-we desire someplace that is smaller and wont explode with development (our little "mayberry" has become a hugely popular bedroom community
).
any info. would be appreciated.
oh-and if anyone works for county or state government-how are they? dh has worked government here and will likely do so whereever we move-we know the experience can vary greatly from agency to agency.
