AZ is SOOOO diverse! It is a dozen climates, cultures, political idealogies. Tell me what areas you like in your state and I'll tell you where to live in AZ. The answer may be none!

Not being from Arizona, that would be hard for me to say. I like Tucson, but what do I know being from the East?

I would pick Winslow, so I could go and stand on a corner.

There are lots of great areas it would depend on their lifestyle. We have downtown areas, mountains, lakes, deserts.

My in-laws love Prescott and it is charming, but I absolutely think Sedona is the place for me if I wanted to build a dream home.

We live in the Tucson area, and have only lived in the Tucson area, so I don't know what would be the 'best city' since I have only lived in one, and have nothing to compare it to! It would depend on what the person building their dream home would want and like, as there are many lovely areas with outstanding views!

I probably wouldn't build a dream home in Arizona. I'd find a home in one of the DelWebb communities, with all the amenities... golf courses, clubhouse, pools, tennis courts, scads of activites, etc. Sun City West maybe.
