Hi everybody. I've been considering a move to the Phoenix area in a few months can anyone direct me to sites for house/apt rentals and jobs? I have experience in food sales, human resources, training, customer service, quality control and am in school for crime and psychology. Any other suggestions, advice, websites? Thanks.

All you need to do is Google "Arizona"
or "Phoenix" and it should give you all the info you need.
Personnaly though, I'd rather be in Tucson,
It has a "small town feel", but has everything you need
or could want. Plus you can get almost anywhere - mountains
or beach, Vegas, etc in a reasonavble amount of time.

When you get here - welcome to Arizona!

Yay! We need more BFPers in Phoenix!! I moved here last September from New Jersey, but actually grew up in Colorado :)

Please feel free to PM me if you want to chat.

I recommend www.rent.com for apartments; that's how I found mine, and I absolutely LOVE IT! But in addition to rent.com, after you find places you think you want to look at, I recommend doing a yahoo or google search for reviews of the apartment complex. I found them to be invaluable. Also, stay away from private owners renting their houses or condos out - many of them are in foreclosure and I've heard several horror stories from people being evicted without notice (a guy in my office has had this happen twice in the past year).

For jobs - there is a local website called Jobing.com. I haven't looked at it; I transferred here with my company, so it's one of the things I didn't have to look for. There is also Craigslist of course, Monster.com, etc.

I can tell you, for me personally, I am loving the weather here so far, although we're getting ready for the Summer blast but I'll take that over SNOW any day!

Depending on what you like and dislike about Colorado, you may or may not like Phoenix. I would say the pace is a reminscent of parts of Colorado; Phoenix is spread out like Denver but less populated. There are mountains on all sides which is just beautiful.

What things do you like to do for fun?

I am making my first trip to Vegas since living here - 4.5 hour drive from my apartment (in North Phoenix).. woo hoo! I can't wait!!

Please let me know if there is anything I can help you with :)

HOWDY!
 
:cowboy:
Hey there fellow Arizonans!
Just wanted to say a big HOWDY to you all and I miss my home state an awful lot. I'm from Flagstaff/Sedona area and moved out of state over a year ago. I'll be back home to stay for more than a visit when the time is right. Until then, thanks for taking care of my home while I'm away. :cowboihorse:

I read about this today, and while I obviously cannot go I thought I'd share it with the AZ people here who may be interested.

Howdy from GA. I'm posting in the AZ site because I travel to AZ for work on a regular basis. I'm always looking for some femme friendly activity where I can be myself and not be in professional mode the whole time.

I'll check you all out when I'm coming to town. I love that some of you are posting links about local happenings.

I'll see you mid-October!!!!

Scrappy L'il Southpaw 10-06-2011 09:45 PM

I thought I posted.

I'll be in Arizona for a short one October 18th-20th. Anybody want to gather on Thursday the 19th?

I did notice that someone had a birthday that day... What say ye?

QueenofSmirks 12-13-2011 08:14 PM

Happy Holidays, fellow AZers!

Should we try to get together for coffee or a casual lunch in Phoenix sometime soon??? Or... maybe Harrah's in Maricopa on a Saturday???

Welcome! Where did you move from? I moved about a year and 4 months ago from New Jersey.

The thread has been quiet, not much activity anyway but maybe we can get something going! :)

Peach 01-21-2012 09:36 PM

QueenofSmirks 01-22-2012 02:10 PM

Not that I'm complaining, but this morning's 49 degrees felt cold to me! I'm looking forward to no-jacket weather! :)
