Your requirements are pointing you towards Gilbert, it really is a nice area. If I could afford it, it’s where I would be.

Gilbert, chandler, Mesa is near where a lot of industry is.

Take the AZ CCW class anyway, its useful info and the permit is your proof of background check so you don't have to go thru NICS when you buy. There are 4 or 5 nice outdoor shooting ranges in the Phoenix area. See below. (As well as several indoor ranges I don't know much about.) I've been a member of both PRGC & RSSC for over 20 years, (and have been a volunteer, match director, coach or club officer in those years). Both RSSC & PRGC are true member-run clubs, both lease their dirt (RSSC from AZGFD, PRGC from PHX city park). Ben Avery is a AZGFD owned and run facility, landless clubs reserve the various ranges and run shoots there. A smaller range, Joe Foss range in Buckeye, an hour west of Phoenix, is run by ASRPA. All 3 larger ranges have a public range, the 2 clubs offer membership. All 3 have lots of competition style events. Every scheduled competition or practice style event at the 2 clubs and the clubs that use Avery are open to everyone, most by walk-on, some shoots take advanced entry reservations. Both PRGC and RSSC cost about the same to join. Each has a main range and 6 or 8 specialty ranges. RSSC faces north, PRGC faces south (low winter sun is unpleasant to shoot in) PRGC High Power range is configured properly with 1 pits and 3 firing lines, Rio is backwards, 1 firing line and 2 pits. RSSC tries to run itself like a business, all members have to leave when the last RO clocks out, even if there are still 3 hours of sunlight remaining. All the specialty ranges (except shotgun) require a lengthy approval process to gain access. On top of that, there is a tedious process to get the after-hours pass that allows weekday shooting till 9. RSSC has the best sporting clays field in the state, perhaps all the states. But they don't allow carry. PRGC is much more member-friendly. members can use most (but not all) ranges without a special qual process. PRGC is very friendly for members bringing guests and allows carry. BASF has about 80 firing points on the public range and 15 or 20 trap/skeet/clays fields and a huge archery area. The facility also has about 15 other ranges reserved by clubs for shoots including 100 firing points to 1000yds on high power, 2 silhouette ranges and about a dozen practical bays. PRS-style shooting is monthly at a private shooting site called "Cowtown" in the west part of the valley not far from Ben Avery. And a monthly shoot at RSSC. BLM is opening some formal maintained shooting sites in the west valley desert. There are some nice outdoor ranges in Tucson, also near Casa Grande, Flagstaff, Payson, Kingman, Yuma and other parts of the state. As to shooting in the Desert, BLM and National forest permit shooting most of the year. State Trust Land permits hunting but NOT target shooting. Indian reservations do not permit anything. Check the national forest websites, Tonto NF, the one closest to phoenix, has closed off shooting on hundreds of square miles nearest town due to dirt bike infestation and bans water jugs. Steel and paper are still OK, but plan on an hour drive to find a safe legal place. During hot weather fire seasons all the NFs ban shooting, camp fires and smoking. Hunting is by drawing for tags to hunt anything larger than a quail or coyote. But lots of public land to hunt on. https://www.azgfd.com/ Shopping in the Phoenix area: BassPro in Mesa Cabela's in northwest valley 2 or 3 Sportsman's Warehouse stores lots of Local gun Shops. Hope this helps, welcome to AZ, shoot good! Poole |

Visited Prescott yesterday and saw a NOW HIRING sign outside Sturm Ruger - I don't know how well they pay but it's a nice area to live in.

Negative on working at Ruger haha. I hate the current Ruger and my plan is to live in either Chandler or Gilbert and work at Northrop in Mesa making 30mm autocannon for the AH64. If that doesn't work out I'll just stick with the DoS job I'm getting soon since the pay is pretty decent. |

Quoted: Which part of Gilbert or Chandler should I be looking at? Is there any other parts of Phoenix AO should I be considering? Here are factors for finding the right location: - Conservative area - Good schools (for future kids) - Not too far of a commute to Boeing or Northrop (I'm still planning on working at those places after the DoS job) - Friendly Police Department and Sheriff Office in case shtf I greatly appreciated any insights or helps that y'all can offer and I promise to bring another conservative vote to Arizona to cancel out a liberal vote cause y'all really do need it! View Quote Any place in Gilbert or Chandler will be a fine place for relocation. We had a midpoint census in 2015 which showed Gilbert has the highest family income of any city in AZ (PV had higher established wealth, yet not income). When planning for future family, a strong case exists for getting a small place now, and finding an ideal place for a wife and 2.2 children over the next 5 year period. Rental prices are high right now and a mortgage straight away will be beneficial of that is an option (VA mortgage, etc). The residents of Gilbert are so rational that when the street lights are inoperable, the 4 way stop progression works faster and more efficient via man than machine. We own 4 properties of various sizes in Gilbert. Considering a home location in Gilbert @ Chandler for the single fellow, I will recommend South of Guadalupe, North of Pecos, West of Recker, and East of Kyrene which is Chandler / Tempe. Adjacent to this zone there are additional solid locations, yet this should make your search effort more fruitful and finite. Also, there are zones with very large homes and expansive properties (south Gilbert) that really aren't a good fit for a single guy with a commute north each morning. There is a lot of demand for good machinists in AZ. I have sent a lot of work to a monolith south of Sky Harbor airport, as well as a two man shop in Chandler. Both outfits needed young and motivated talent. That may not be where you want your career to be pointed, yet it may show a demand for a more exclusive part of your skillset for after hours work. |

@MattM_Gilbert,
Thank you Sir! That was very insightful and to the point to what I want to know. |

Honestly, "da valley" ie the Phoenix metro area has gone to total shit in the last 20 years, and the last decade has been exponentially worse.
Overcrowded, overpriced, and too many transient residents bringing liberal mindset with them. Best of luck to you, and I'll always welcome another conservative, but AZ is getting worse by the year. |

View Quote I’ve been warned about that. The thing is, with the way the US is currently heading, where ever I go will ended up being liberal (or total shit like you elegantly put it) if not this decade then the next one or the one after. So my thinking is: do I want to stay in Virginia which I hate and fight, or move to a place which I actually like and fight like hell for it? I don’t know about you but if shtf I’d rather fight in Arizona. |

I live in the Prescott region ( we just elected a conservative pro 2a Vietnamese man to our state assembly btw) And there are opportunities in Prescott for jobs and is much less crowded -at least for now- than the valley with less extreme weather. Certainly we don’t have the big employers like Phoenix. Might want to do a more in depth scouting trip. |

Lots of awesome advice here. Mr. Poole has even more. Don't discount the clays at Ben Avery though. They might even have a couple more stations than rio salado.
Tucson trap and skeet and northern az shooting facility have more, but a 2 hour drive from the phx valley. Northern az requires a higher clearance vehicle. A 2wd truck would easily make it as long as no mud from recent rain or snow. A tip is go to the circle k gas station, walmart and frys (grocery store) nearest the area you want to move in. The customers are likely your neighbors unless you check in at rush hour. Do what you want with this info. Politics aside, our state is extremely diverse in geographic zones. Tucson is 2k feet and cooler than phx. Sierra vista in se az is higher. Prescott and Payson are ~5k feet and Flagstaff is 7kish. Figure 5 degrees for every 1k feet. We have TONS of blm land. Hot as hell in summer at lower elevations, but a 2-3 hour drive and you're in a foreign climate. Before all this scarcity horse crap, I would leave the house with a buddy at 430am in the summer to a desert shooting spot and bring tons of water. Sun is up at 530 and you have the entire desert to yourself. Leave by 8 or 9 when it's almost 100 degrees. There's a Vietnamese restaurant called Da Vang at 19th ave and Camelback in Phoenix. The area is somewhat sporty, but the 1st gen immigrants I used to work with swore by it. I loved the mixed seafood soup with squid, crab, shrimp and translucent noodles from there. I have no idea what it's called. |

Avery has I think 4 sporting clays fields probably totalling 50 or 60 stations and about 20 trap and skeet fields
Rio has 1 trap/combo fields and 1 clays field of 16 stations I think so Avery is much much bigger in every dimension. but its built on dirt that is flat as a pool table, except for the impact berms its flat for the 1100 yards from carefree highway to the mountain (and the 1000 yard range pretty much goes from one end to the other) the sporting clays range at Rio has terrain, some shots are up, some are down, you gotta walk up and down as you go thru the course. Avery does have some firing points on top of one of the artificial berms but its just not the same as natural terrain. I shoot rifle at both (avery is better) and on the rare occasions that I shoot shotguns (and this year is the year) I shoot at both ranges. I also shoot rifle and pistol at PRGC, best bullseye club in the western US... lots of opportunities for formal shooting here in Phoenix. shoot good! Poole |

Any realtor/ARFcommer here can tell me which part of Chandler or Gilbert I should be looking at? Price range between $300k to $400k.

In that price range, good luck! It’s a tough market out here for buyers

Raytheon down in Tucson is always looking for precision machinists and they pay well. It's a good place to make a career.
If you have to wait to get in at Raytheon, you could practically walk onto a machinist job at Sargeant Aerospace and Defense while you wait for something better to come along. Your budget will go a lot farther in Tucson than the Phoenix Valley. I dislike both because they are big cities but Tucson is a big city that tries to be small whereas the Phoenix area is like LA. Even though I don't particularly like Tucson propper, it is much better than the Phoenix area. And when I say Phoenix, I'm talking about all the surrounding cities as well. As mentioned, Tucson is a little cooler than Phoenix and gets a little more rain. One advantage to Phoenix is a river that actually has water in it and several man made lakes that aren't too far of a drive. Tucson has some smaller lakes that are within an hour and a half drive. One big advantage for Tucson is there are mountain ranges (sky islands) in every direction that are relatively close and good places to recreate. You could go from 2000 to 9000 feet in 30-45 minutes and be in a totally different environment. Tucson has several shooting ranges if you like the membership route, or you can just find a place that's not State Trust Land out in the desert. One of the other nice things about Tucson is that you can pretty much get to most places in the area within 45 minutes. If I want to go to Benson, it's 45 minutes. Catalina, 45 minutes. Redington Pass, 45 minutes. Mt. Lemon, 45 minutes. |

View Quote I'll just add to this that if you want a friendly sheriff during SHTF, you probably want to consider being in either Pinal or Cochise county and commuting into Tucson (Cochise) or the SE Valley of Phoenix (Pinal). The Pima and Maricopa county sheriffs are both leftists. |

Everyone here recommending Tucson, not that I’m thinking about Tucson because future wifey and her fam are from and live in Scottsdale, but isn’t Tucson super liberal from what I’ve heard?
|
|
Big cities in general are liberal. Pima County is disappointing politically but Maricopa seems to have caught up anyway so what's the difference?
As far a guns go, state law prevents the cities from enacting their own gun control so that's in check. Personally, I would live outside of the city limits if you have a choice anyway. Hell, you could even live in Pinal County and still be close enough to work in Tucson. Ditto for Cochise County. With your budget, I would be looking at Cochise or Pinal anyway for land. In Tucson it's not that big of a deal to live on one extreme end of the metro area and work on the other. Doing that in the Phoenix Valley would be a nightmare. |

View Quote The city of Tucson is definitely run by far lefties. Some of the surrounding areas though are very conservative (Vail, Marana, many of the unincorporated parts of Pima County). Tucson Metro is generally much cheaper than the Phoenix Metro, couple of the school districts are tops in the state. You could definitely live pretty far out of Tucson proper and commute to Raytheon though and your money would go pretty damn far. If the future Mrs. is in Scottsdale and wants to be close though, I'd say your stuck sticking with Maricopa County. |

Dunno if it has been mentioned yet, but Vltor is in Tucson too.

I live in Chandler and my wife is a realtor. <$400k in Chandler will be tough. Think about if you want a single family home, condo, etc and size and number of bedrooms. If you are handy, you might be able to find an older home that needs some TLC. The market is nuts right now so you will need to be aggressive. Good luck!

Sounds like Gilbert will be more within my price range? I still gotta do a couple rotations overseas first before moving so hopefully a right house will pops up by the end of the year. |

Gilbert is nice and growing rapidly with prices increasing. $350 to $400k in Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa tend to last less than a week on the market.
Chandler has good schools by AZ standards Lots of good neighborhoods that are a bit older. The Mcmansion construction rate is high. I would expect real estate market to pull back in the next year or so, but who really knows. If you know what you want (size, lot size, # bedrooms, pool or not) I can peek at MLS and see what is available |

Quoted: Bump for more info about Chandler/Gilbert/Mesa. View Quote Chandler and Gilbert are nicer then Mesa. However all 3 have pockets of shitty neighborhoods. Mesa just has a lot more of them. If I had to buy a house sight unseen I'd concentrate on Gilbert, Chandler 2nd and Mesa a distant 3rd. |

Quoted: Bump for more info about Chandler/Gilbert/Mesa. View Quote Yes. I prefer the east side of town but always get stuck in Phoenix proper. Currently living in way north Phoenix, but it's nice up here too so I can't complain. I'm 10 minutes from the actual desert and 15 to my favorite out-door range so that's also a bonus; and 30 minutes to down town if needed. |

Just saw this thread, live in West Chandler near I-10 and the 202.
I like the area as it is <30 minutes to the airport and another 15 to downtown Phoenix, lots of good places to eat. School district is supposed to be good but I have no kids so no firsthand accounts. Home prices are rising sharply, people from CA and OR bought the last couple of homes near me. The only practical advise that I can give is to rent if at all possible, I have been through a few housing bubbles and this looks to be another one. If you do buy, get the smallest house that you need and not the biggest that you can afford. can't tell you how many people I have seen lose it all because they were way overextended financially. There is an indoor range, C2 Tactical, close and an outdoor range, Rio Salado, maybe 30 minutes away. |
