***You should also consider areas just outside of it too, like Casa Grande for example.You can help us help you by telling us a little more about yourself, your experience level, and what type of real estate investing you're looking to do (fix and flip, buy and hold, etc.)Plus, if you tell us what kind of property you're looking for or what returns you're hoping to get with your strategy, we'll better be able to point you in the right direction.
