Moving to Phoenix...

Mydela

Hi Phoenix parents, I am a soon-to-be new mom in Portland, OR. My husband just got a job in the Phoenix area and we will be moving to Glendale sometime this summer. I'm excited about the move, but I've never been to Arizona in my life. So my question is...what is it like to live in Phoenix? What things do you love most about it, and what things do you find...challenging? What sorts of local resources do you enjoy for your babies and kids? I guess what I'm most curious about is what the overall character of the city is. I've lived in several places--I grew up in Wichita, KS, went to school in Southern California, and have been in Portland for the past 3 years--and every area of the country has had its own distinct personality. Please help me discover Phoenix's!
