Home Sweet Home Compared to What?
The Prescott, Az. slogan is “Everybody’s Hometown”. Think of it as more of a welcoming phrase than a point of origin. And speaking of hometowns… most of us are from someplace that has fond memories, family connections, and maybe you like to go visit occasionally to see how people and things are doing.
In perspective Prescott is not trying to replace your hometown, it’s more like you can be on vacation here permanently and keep your point of origin. If you are from a small town then you will feel at home immediately. If you came from a bigger city and have had enough of the rat race you will be amazed at the Hometown feel of Prescott.
Our biggest group comes from the Phoenix area. Our population is 41% retired and they brought their economy with them. We can’t compete with Phoenix Metro, we not even trying and who needs 115 degrees? There are no interstate freeways in Prescott, it’s not on the way to anywhere, you have to come here on purpose. Some people stop in Phoenix long enough to get baked and then move a mile high to the north-central mountains of Prescott. One of the hardest things to get across to people is that Prescott is in the mountains, with real pine trees and everything. In fact there are over a million acres of Nat’l Forest very close by.
If you have to see the D’Backs game or go to Trader Joes it’s 110 miles to the PHX. It’s actually a great getaway spot in the winter. For the most part you will find all you need to make life a fabulous thing right here in town. There is always something up at the Courthouse Plaza and we want you to feel at home here like the rest of us. Come see this beautiful part of Arizona, invite your friends and family to experience Everybody’s Hometown. There is a powerful search engine on my website www.craigmann.net if moving to Prescott is on your list of stunning places to consider moving your life. Pay attention, work hard, and by all means live it up!
