Re:Mesa sucks....and...forewarning to people planning to move to AZ.

I TOTALLY AGREE with the guy that said Mesa is a toilet! Mesa is a run down Mormon infested dump and it SUCKS! I`ve lived in several areas of Mesa for 6 years now and can`t wait to leave. If you are not Mormon, you probably won`t like it anywhere near Mesa (the "M" stands for Mormon). If you want a nice area, move to Awatukee or Scottsdale. Fountain Hills is very serene, but it`s mostly older people. Or, just move all the way out of Arizona like I`m going to do. This place is the armpit of hell, so I hope you like it to be 150 degrees outside if you are planning to move here. Also, more warnings... this town is so dead and lame it`s not even funny! You can`t even go have a drink anywhere after 1am because the entire town turns into a ghost town at 12:59 am, thanks to the Mormons or whoever! The nightlife scene (the short lived nightlife till 1am) has gone WAY downhill in the past few years because the cops are so "DUI happy" here, you will end up in wonderful Sheriff Joe`s jail and with $1500 worth of fines for having two beers and driving. You have to drive because it`s an all night ordeal to catch a cab in this town, unlike a real city like NYC. But I would leave the Escalade at home if I were you. Every other "car" is an SUV here and I hate SUVs! Don`t move to Arizona, PERIOD! Move to a REAL city like NYC, L.A, Miami, Chicago, Boston, Dallas, or Seattle, especially if you are single. I`m moving to Miami South Beach where there are no limits to excitement, unlike here.



Back to the real point of this review...Don`t move to Sienna, for one reason it`s in AZ, for another, the management here is very "bossy" like they own you or something! I hear constant testimonials about them "taking you out at the knees" when you move out of here so don`t expect to get a deposit back. Just read the back-dated reviews on here... When they say that the airport is in direct flight path of Phoenix Sky Harbor, they mean DIRECT flight path! There`s probably a couple hundred jumbo jets that fly dead center over the complex on a daily basis and they are only 7 miles out, which means very low and loud. So...if you have lots of money to throw in the garbage and want to live in the ghetto, move here. Don`t let the appearance of the complex fool you, take a drive through the surrounding ghetto in all directions. Aside from the pool, which should be called `The Playboy mansion of college hotties,` this place (Sienna and Arizona) is like a prison.
