Homes surround the golf course, and crime scores are low

The manicured curb appeal is typical of a homeowners association-run community. Lots are spacious, and the golf courses' gently rolling hills are dotted with cottonwood trees.

Near several highways, traffic stalls and noise are a reality
The main thoroughfare is South Rittenhouse Road. Arizona State Route 24, which ties into Arizona 202, is roughly 8 miles from the community's core. Traffic can be severe to the point of standstills in Queen Creek. "The farthest south you want to be is in these villages. The moment you start traveling south of Ocotillo Road off Ellsworth Road, it becomes highly congested," Bermudez says. She adds that the sounds of airplanes flying overhead can be a reality here, as Mesa Gateway Airport is less than 10 miles away.
