AZ Places to live?
We are looking at Condos/Apt's and It's tuff picking when we don't know the area, Anyone know of Nice condo's or apt's but in a good area where I don't have to worry about my cars getting jacked...
Chris Where do you live, how far away from UTI...?
Is Tempe/Chandler Too far away it seems it would be about a 30 minute drive from tempe/chandler to UTI...

Yeah you should look in the Goodyear area. I lived there for 3 years and you would be really close to Avondale and UTI. It would be like a 5 min. drive. Its really nice and you won't have to worry about your car getting jacked.

tempe/chandler will take you FOREVER in the morning traffic. Move to somewhere in goodyear, litchfield, el mirage, surprise, somewhere over there on the west side. from at least 100th+ ave west. and anywhere from McDowell to Bell

I live like GhettoNate said, right around Dysart & Mcdowel. Its 3.6 miles from the UTI campus, I was bored...I clocked it. Its really convieniant area actually, right next to I-10, and everything i need from food to hurr-cuts and blockbuster is right across the street....and theres a wal-mart supercenter... Me and my roommate head over there at 3am and pick up on the crack-heads....lol. Go to ForRent.com and do an Apt. search for Avondale. Give us the names of possibilites and we'll let you know if theyre good or not.
PEACE

When you say tempe chandler are too far, do you mean 30minutes? or are you thinking more like a hour in traffic?
i've heard its about a 20 min drive from tempe to avondale...

Lol..at 120mph. It's going to take you at least 30min to get there with no traffic. I can't imagine with traffic.

but is there really traffic at 5:30 am? lol I hope not... hopefully we will find a place within a few miles... I found a awesome place in Mesa but that seems like its 35 miles away or so. Damn that would be a long drive to school everyday.
Have to look for something closer then, hard judging distances when you dont live there :-P
Well I'll be up 3-7th of march (this weekend) maybe I'll get to meet a few of you saturday night.

How tough is it to pass emmisions in AZ? This is my main concern as I have long ago removed all emmisions equipment. Is there any way around them?
My girlfriend and I are looking to move to AZ in July. We are coming out there in May to check it out. We origionally we looking at the Prescott area, but may end up in Pheonix, Tucson areas to get jobs.
