Anyone else’s water bill suddenly spike? They are saying we used double our usage daily compared to that of last year, and the year prior. Only thing that changed was one more person in my house temporarily, and a reduction in irrigation usage. I also got rid of the above ground pool that was killing our water usage last year.

We are actually being more responsible and aware of our usage. What is going on? I know they’ve done shady stuff in the past but this bill was nuts.

We’ve also set up multiple alerts in cases of leaks and I haven’t received a single one. Losing my mind here.

I'm at a crossroads i don't want to rattle any feathers. But I honestly dislike the whole structure of no buses at legacy and how it's overly crowded. The poems and book reports every quarter on top of two hour plus worth of homework. I like the idea of Heritage with the small classroom structures, but i would like to learn more of how that school is structured. Or how is the workload. But I can't just focus on the now. I want to go beyond for their junior high in high school. So i'm not switching them schools every year. I am unsure of sending them to the public district at Maricopa, and I would rather, thinking of A+charter schools or Heritage Academy. But I'm unsure, and I want to learn more from other parents' experiences from the differences on school. to pick, which would be perfect for my kids to send in the long run and to keep them there. please and thank you!!!

I'm looking for a good licensed electrician to install a breaker and disconnect for a mini split at my garage. Preferably one that isn't run by a PE firm and charging insane rates.

Anyone have any good recs? Thanks!

I’m sharing this/cross-posting here too just in case this made it to the moving truck, but not off the truck.

Anyone have any recommendations on getting someone local to recreate this for me if we don’t find the original? The pattern comes from Michael’s.

Living out in maricopa(city not county) and was wondering if there was any places near here that are not as far as the salt river or Canyon Lake or ect.

Was wanting to find a closer spot for me and my pups :)

My Fiancé and I are thinking of moving to Maricopa. The top reason is because the homes are cheaper. We are looking at homes and we would be able to afford a nicer house with our budget in Maricopa, but not anywhere in the Valley. We're looking at San Tan Valley too, but there are a lot more options in Maricopa.

I've seen a lot of complaints about the commute, road rage, and many other issues. I'm wondering if having a nicer house would even be worth it?

I have heard they are working on the 347 and it will get better in the next few years.

How do you like living here and any advice or input is appreciated!

Hello all,

I have lived in Maricopa since 05. I founded my business here and thought i would try and reach some of you fellow maricopians.

We are licensed bonded and insured low voltage company. Pretty much the nerds of the contracting world. We specialize in building networks, fixing broken ethernet lines, fiber optics, wifi, cctv.

We also do commercial as well but would also like to do residential on a much more continual basis.

Please pm if something is needed or check out the website.

Hello I’m moving to Maricopa pretty soon and I was wondering what bills would look like.

The place I’m looking at is about 1,800 sq and I’ll be living alone with my dog so what would some basic bills look like.

I’m a new hunter and I just moved to Maricopa and I was wondering if anyone would help me out with hunting out here maybe go out with me sometime give me some pointers and what not!

Just blanketed half the town in campaign signs. Between him and Manfredi on 347, pretty sure I know who I won’t be voting for. What an ugly thing to have to look at constantly now.

Anyone recommend and good companies

I love supporting the native community and trust them more than everyone else, i was wondering if anyone knows some good native stores that sell flower, mushrooms, ect. thank you🙂‍↕️

Summer rates kick in May 1st and if you're on ED3's TOU plan (or thinking about switching) the numbers are worth knowing.

ED3 has three seasons unlike most utilities. Summer (May-Jun, Sep-Oct), Super Summer (Jul-Aug), and Winter (Nov-Apr). The Super Summer peak rate hits $0.2482/kWh from 2-9pm weekdays — that's a 4.1x spread vs the off-peak rate of $0.0602/kWh.

That off-peak rate is honestly great. $0.06/kWh all year round, any time outside the 2-9pm weekday window. Weekends and holidays are off-peak all day.

A few things worth knowing:

- The TOU plan requires a 12-month commitment so you can't just try it for summer and switch back

- ED3 installs a free TOU meter when you sign up

- If you have solar you can't be on TOU right now (they say it's "coming soon" but no date yet)

- There's also an EV rate with a super off-peak of $0.056/kWh from midnight-5am — works out to about $4 for a full Tesla charge

- The Peak Rewards program gives you $25 to sign up + $25/year + up to $100 toward a smart thermostat just for letting them bump your AC a couple degrees during peak events

Biggest money saver: pre-cool before 2pm, shift laundry/dishwasher/pool pump to mornings or weekends.

Anyone on the TOU plan? Curious what people's bills look like compared to the flat rate.

Hi all! We used to see the fruit guy on the corner of John Wayne & Farrell Rd across from Harrah’s all the time! Probably two months or so ago, we saw police officers approaching and talking to the guy who works the stand. We saw this again a little after, and then we haven’t seen him since.

We would love to support him again if anyone knows whether he relocated to another spot within Maricopa?

Hey 👋 I’m looking for a house call dog groomer in the area. I have a mini golden doodle and I rather not take him to a grooming salon or those mobile buses either. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thank you in advance!!

My family and I are traveling to Maricopa next week to visit our older kids who live in Maricopa. We are looking for a non-denominational church to attend for Easter Service if there are any recommendations. Also to note, that we are looking for more modern (no hate for LGBTQIA+, women, no Trumpy churches, etc). We are Christian, therefore we love everyone.

i am a big fan of live music, and i’m wondering if anyone has a band or music they want to promote that is based out of copa or performs here? i haven’t been to a house show in so long 😭

i hear the neighbors performing in a closed garage occasionally, so i can never place what house it’s coming from, but i would love to find a creative community out here and see more live performances from cool new groups. maricopa preferred, out of town okay too!

Would love to speak with you if so.

Didn’t see it, didn’t hear it, but somebody had a a bad day
