It's going in by the Harkins theater in PV across from the Chamber of Commerce. I'm not sure when they are breaking ground or are going to open though.

I'm relocating from the east coast to AZ. The job transfer is to Dewey, AZ, and I'm looking for suggestion on where to start looking for a home. I prefer the excelling school districts (High School & Middle School). I realize the better school districts probably go with the higher end housing, but I need something reasonable with a really good school system. Can anyone suggest where to start?

The following link lists most of the PV subdivisions, info about them, and which schools they go to:
Prescott Valley Subdivisions

Then go to: Arizona Department of Education Home Page and click on the Find a School link to see which ones are Excelling, Highly Performing, etc.

It's actually getting better in Pres-cott than it used to be to be young, but it's still mostly a place for your parents and grandparents. Best to organize your own soccer group with hispani-cotts cause most Caucasian-cotts like USA style football on TV (and getting drunk) because most of them are overweight lazy-o-cotts. Emory Riddle-cott and Yavapai-cott are ok if you got mom and dad tuition buck-cotts, but other than blowing buck-cotts in the Pres-cott Valley in the big box-o-cotts and at the local mall-o-cott, get out and go hike and bike or it's just a big damn bore-a-cott. Don't forget to pig out at In-n-Out-o-cott on your way back from Super WalMart-cott.

I feel very sorry for you. I have always loved Prescott ( pronounced Pres-kit, not cott) even when I was younger and now that Im 25, I can't imagine a better place to settle down and enjoy the surroundings. Perhaps Phoenix would be more appropriate if your not into great people and spectacular nature. As far as rednecks and retirees go, good luck finding a place that doesnt have some form of them. I find that kids who are bored of Prescott, usually will be bored and negative anywhere they go, so best wished to you.

Yeah, I saw that about 2 months ago. I can't wait til they open it. We need one here. That's a fun place to eat at. I'll definitely be there a lot, when they do open, I hope.
