I live in Pasadena, CA. We went to Green Valley a couple of months ago and we'll be going for Mother's Day. It's a really nice town (small but still...). They used to live here, but then moved to Vegas about 10 years ago. That got so crowded, they decided to look around and fell in love with Green Valley. Quiet etc. There isn't a lot to do there though. I usually go for a run while I'm there (nice place to run and feel safe - the air is clean). There's also a very cool art colony/tourist type place called Tubac a few miles down the road. Haven't had a chance to check out much more yet. My parents are not as old as most of the people there so it's been interesting. My mom is amazed at how many of those elderly people walk. One lady in her 80s walks 10 miles every single day! All the communities there have health facilities and tons of classes - I'm amazed. I'd like to check out some of the yoga/pilates type stuff sometime.
