(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - We were new to Phoenix and excited for a new start. All that ended after school started. My children were the minority and were picked on and harrassed daily. The teachers try thier best but the unruley children and thier home life can not be fixed by a few hours in a class room. We ended up selling our home and moving before the years was even up. I would not recommend moving to this area unless you have no children otherwise the price of a good house is not worth the toll it takes on your children
