Actually, Sedona is built in the forest. Mainly Pinon Pines and Juniper with lots of Cottonwood and other deciduous trees along the creek. The forest gets denser as you drive up the canyon towards Flagstaff. Also, the largest stands of Ponderosa Pine in the USA are around Flagstaff.
Did someone say desert?
Love Flagstaff! Sedona is in the forest? looked a lot like desert to me, but we just drove thru, not the kind of forest I had in mind.
You don't want to hear the answer, but here goes anyway.. the foreclosure rate is high due to the large number of people who wanted to live in such great places. Mobs of people moved to their dream spot, and a % of them lost jobs and were foreclosed on. It's all because of the
popularity of the area, it's God's country...
You could also pick on Los Angeles for taking water from the OWens Valley. Good thing they did it though. People are going to live where they want to live. Fot now at least.

Nope, Sedona is in forest although it is close to the edge of the forest which probably starts around Village of Oak Creek (179) and Red Rock Loop Road (89A). Pinon Pines and Junipers are not real tall trees but they are still trees.
Mostly because they're poor and can't afford any better. That's why I laugh about when ever Republicans claim "tax payers are fleeing California", it's the working poor who are leaving because they can't afford the price of housing so they're moving to one of the few places you can buy a house on a $12 per hour job. Meanwhile the rich are snapping up ever more houses in places like California because they sure do like those Malibu beach houses, the Vineyards in Napa, or a Mansion by the sea like Romney bought in La Jolla.
They're economic refugees who got priced out of the good life in California because to many other people with money wanted in. There is no shame in that but there is in covering it up with lame political rhetoric. Just call it what it is, they don't have the money to live in the most desirable places so they decided to live in a place which the market has determined is less desirable but where they can afford a house. That's all there is too it.
I agree.. Buy a house anywhere you like, but don't buy one in Az, NM or Tx.... They are too hot for you... Somehow we will survive without your presence.....
No everybody is not wrong. I respect everyone's opinion but yours. Don't worry I won't be moving to Apple Valley California either.
See, I'm not afraid to tell the world where I live, you, on the other hand, hide in the shadows and throw rocks....
If you respected everyone's opinion, you wouldn't have started this troll thread...
