“Seem to recall a bit of information about a community just outside Prescott that has serious water problems.
I believe that was reported just last year.”
It was an unincorporated area northwest of the city of Prescott. Once in a while, areas like this will have wells dry up occasionally. They relocated their well and everything is fine.
My friends live just north of that area, are in a water district of 200 homes, and haven’t had any issues with water.
Good.
I will tell all the Californians to move there.
You can watch as your crime rate climbs as it has here.
If we move to Az it would be Prescott.
“Good.

About one third of the area’s population came from California and the crime rate has gone down. People over fifty and with grandkids tend not to commit crimes.
Phoenix and Tucson areas have crime problem because of illegal aliens and younger male population.
Phoenix is downstream from the canyon. Most of the Colorado river’s course is in severe drought.
Well. It is the second reddest county in AZ. right behind Mohave.
Wont be for long with the westers moving in.
A conservative Californian is equal to a liberal here.
Which realtor you work for?
There is no underground water source at the South Rim. Before the pipeline was built through the Canyon from the North rim, water was brought in by tankcar from several aquifers S of the Canyon or from around Williams.
Thx!!
Been there!
OK, but Phoenix is WAY South of the Frand Canyon...and DOWNHILL.
The South Rim of the Grand Canyon is at about 6800 feet above sea level...
regs or agreements that allocate water
It’s easy to allocate water when there’s plenty . It’s a wasted argument when there’s not enough water.
Along the river there are about 7 different states/ tribes entitled to get water. If everyone is entitled to 100 gallons each, and there’s only 500 gallons, that’s a problem. Who gets water last?
