Lauren, a mother of two, often finds herself marveling at the sense of belonging LD2 has instilled in her family. "Living in North Phoenix's LD2 is like being part of a tight-knit community," she says, smiling. On weekends, her family explores the Cave Buttes Recreation Area, soaking in the natural beauty that's just a stone's throw away. The school districts here, especially Deer Valley Unified, have been a blessing, offering her children not just education but an environment where they blossom. "There's a sense of security here, a shared sense of pride amongst families. We celebrate local events together and the community feels like an extended family. It's our little oasis in the bustling city," Lauren adds.
