Living in Cave Creek and Carefree Arizona

Thinking of moving to Scottsdale? Before you make that decision, be sure to check out the small sibling towns of Cave Creek and Carefree. Not as well known as their big next door neighbor Scottsdale, Cave Creek and Carefree offer many of the same attractions and more, but in a smaller, more laid back and incredibly beautiful high Sonoran desert setting. Cave Creek works hard to protect and project its Western heritage, while Carefree is appropriately named for its easy going, unhurried vibe. The geographic boundaries of North Scottsdale, Cave Creek and Carefree are difficult to distinguish and seem to almost intertwine "up here." Architectural home styles range from traditional Southwest, to Tuscan, desert contemporary, and a blend of styles. Many properties are three-quarter acres and larger, with natural desert landscapes, ancient stately saguaro cacti, dramatic boulder formations, views of twinkly city lights down valley, and those breathtaking Arizona sunsets that never get old. And there are no local property taxes in either Carefree or Cave Creek. From distinctive coffee shops to one-off bars and restaurants with funny names; to art galleries and events; thrift shops; live music almost every night of the week; and retail shops for almost any taste, hobby or interest, there are so many reasons to call Cave Creek and Carefree home!
