My parents actually just built a new home in Sonoran Foothills, they really love the community up there.
Anthem is also a really nice master planned community to check out, maybe we could see a post on it sometime. I have many friends in Anthem and its a pretty cool place.
These communities are absolutely gorgeous! Arizona is one of the most beautiful places in America and these planned communities look like they do a great job of accenting that natural beauty.
My uncle live in Sonoran Foothills with his family, they built a new home in this community almost six months ago. Panoramic views of the mountains and descending natural wash corridors are one of the several attractions in Sonoran Foothills.
