I lived in Prescott for seven years and currently work in Prescott Valley (which is nothing like Prescott to put it nicely...). It is a nice town with fresh air and mild winters, this winter has been pretty warm.

Unfortunately, Prescott was "discovered" back in the '90s as a retirement destination and its growth exploded. Traffic can suck at times and, outside of Sun City, it is a little "Del Boca Vista" of retirees. I remember going into the Post Office on various occasions and finding it packed and me being the only one under fifty.

No, I'm not knocking seniors looking for a place to retire - it is a nice place to retire... but the growth has changed the character of the place. For seniors thinking of heading there, finding a primary care physician can be very difficult as more and more offices are choosing not to deal with Medicare (or accepting new patients under Medicare).
