- Driving around the town of Payson Arizona. We check out the antique store drive the main streets and then head north towards the Mogollon Rim. We also check out some of the neighborhoods around Payson and the Real Estate market.
Living in Arizona is quite a unique experience because of the vastness that the state offers. From the Sonoran Desert in the south to the high country in the north all the way up towards the Four Corners east and the Grand Canyon in the west. Known as the Grand Canyon state, Arizona is diverse in many ways. The state tree is the Palo Verde, the state cactus is the Saguaro, the state bird is the Cactus wren.

I've lived in Payson for 35 years - no matter witch direction you go... your out in the boonies.Bottom line for me - I would not live any other place.
Payson is beautiful. When I went it was perfect. 108 in the valley and 77 in the mountains. Perfect.
for such a large state i hate homes that are so on top of each other. I need more space between me and my neighbors.
If I ever move to Arizona it would be Payson. Stayed there a few years ago on a hunting trip.The people who run the archery shop were very nice.
I was born in Payson, AZ in 1980. I moved to Massachusetts a year later where I have been for the last 41 years. Lately I've been wondering what my birth place looks like. Thanks so much for giving me some insight. I really appreciate it 🙏
I live in Payson and it is a nice place to be except on summer weekends. That's when everyone leaves Phoenix and comes up to the mountains, up on the Rim. Want a cup of coffee? Forget about it. Want to go out and have breakfast? Forget about it. On Sunday afternoon, HWY 260 is stop and go for a few miles. The stores have lines around the shelves two or three times and the gas stations look like crowded car lots.Every garbage can is overflowing. We need a bypass around Payson but I'm sure the business owners stop that. I don't blame them but the thing is, Payson is projected to double in population in the next ten years. There are going to be some serious growing pains in Payson very soon. I'm third generation Arizonian and I hate to see this happen. I'll be heading for open spaces soon where no one wants to live. Is there any land for sale way over on the back side of the Grand Canyon, right on the edge? Let me know.
I hate to break the bubble but...Payson is not Peaceful! I live in Payson. On the weekends the inhabitants of this town have to stay home because there is so much traffic you can’t even get to the grocery store. If you manage to get to the grocery store you cannot get back home because the road through town (260), has car to car, bumper to bumper with vehicles blocking the intersection. The gas pumps often don’t work on weekends because they’re overloaded with people trying to get gas. Sometimes the Internet goes out along with cell service for several days because the infrastructure needs replacing. the population has grown so much it can not accommodate all the cell phone usage. It has high crime almost higher than anywhere else in AZ (as per % of population), This all goes unseen to the public. The prices for everything are higher than in the Phoenix area, the other day watermelon was $9 for an average melon. Gas is higher. The grocery stores run out of food often because of people passing through town buy up everything. During the pandemic people from the valley came up and bought out all our stores so the people living here had very few choices of anything especially toilet paper! Living wage jobs are few and almost non existent as is housing. Think twice about moving here.
Payson is like a slice of Central Oregon in Arizona, I will definitely be making day trips here whenever I feel homesick
My wife's family surname is Payson and we had to take a drive up there to check out a town named Payson. We wanted something touristy for our troubles and tried that shop on our trip that you stopped at, nothing but definitely worth the stop. We went to the sports store on the other side of town (which has everything you need for sporting goods needs). They told us to try Walmart which I was not that excited about and they had nothing. IS IT A SECRET that the "RIM COUNTRY MUSEUM AND ZANE GRAY CABIN" is located in this town. I found this out after leaving and will be back just for that museum which has touristy stuff to buy. I hope that at some point you can redo your video and include the museum and cabin.
Payson is a cute town and nice area 😊
Just love your videos of the places to go and see 🤠
drive from payson to fountain hills down the mountains...most amazing drive i ever took in my life...and i did it for the first time at night. I was kind of scared going down the mountains at speed in the dark.
i enjoyed this so much love watching these drives through Arizona towns,,someday i wanna retire in Arizona and these video's give you a great up close and personal look at some of these areas...great channel
Aso nice calm place but Sedona more colorful 👍👏 thanks for letting us to watch these beautiful places
I've been wanting to move away from Phoenix and Payson looks perfect. Gonna make a trip this weekend for sure! Great video!
Thanks for the video. Payson has sure grown since I lived there (1985/86). I think I want to go back!
It's a great town and right on The Fringe of The heavy pine country Prescott is my favorite followed by Sedona but if you want to be in an equally beautiful place I highly recommend this town
Thanks, Jeff. That's the area I'm interested in.
Check out the Tonto Natural Bridge when you are in Payson. Pretty cool place to get some pictures.
thank you for these videos
