And with plenty of outdoor hiking and over 200 golf courses, visitors and residents alike are sure to get plenty of fresh air and sunshine.

It\u2019s one of the more convenient neighborhoods, within close proximity to freeways and less than a 15-minute commute to Downtown Phoenix. There are also plenty of amenities that add to the convenience of the neighborhood like great restaurants, clothing and grocery stores and pet care services. Residents in the area love to read, too, as is seen by the fact that two bookstores in the area made the best local businesses list.\r\n\r\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/arizona\/phoenix-apartments\/camelback-east-neighborhood\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Camelback East<\/a><\/h3>\r\nThis neighborhood is one of the top neighborhoods in Phoenix. With nearly 160,000 residents, it provides an urban-suburban feel. And yet, there\u2019s plenty of natural beauty all around since this area of Phoenix stretches from the Salt River to the Phoenix Mountains, while being nestled between Camelback Mountain and Piestewa Peak. There is an abundance of scenic trails for hiking, jogging and walking. In the central part of this neighborhood are office towers, upscale residential areas and high-scale shopping plazas. Most residents rent their homes since there are several sophisticated apartment complexes throughout the neighborhood.\r\n\r\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/arizona\/phoenix-apartments\/arcadia-neighborhood\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arcadia<\/a><\/h3>\r\nLocated near Camelback is Arcadia, a vibrant community with a growing shopping and dining district. There are several businesses such as antique shops, upscale boutiques, grills, brewpubs and more. Like Camelback, Arcadia has some amazing scenic surroundings that are perfect for lovers of the great outdoors and those who love to get their workouts in outside. Take your significant other or friends to Camelback Mountain summit or the Arizona Canal Trail. Both are great for hiking, biking, walking and jogging workouts or just a great way to clear your head and de-stress after a long day at work.\r\n\r\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/arizona\/phoenix-apartments\/deer-valley-neighborhood\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Deer Valley<\/a><\/h3>\r\nDeer Valley is another beautiful residential community that\u2019s well-kept and is ideal for people who love being outdoors. There are plenty of opportunities for mountain biking and hiking. Plus, there\u2019s even a waterpark, which is fun for the entire family. That\u2019s saying a lot for how densely populated this area is \u2013 nearly 200,000 people call it home. It\u2019s a safe neighborhood with great schools and plenty of shopping and dining experiences. Most residents are families and young professionals.\r\n\r\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/arizona\/phoenix-apartments\/paradise-valley-neighborhood\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Paradise Valley<\/a><\/h3>\r\nIf you\u2019re ready to plant your roots and watch your family grow, you\u2019ll enjoy this lovely residential suburb that\u2019s approximately 25 minutes away from Downtown Phoenix.

It has a suburban, residential neighborhood feel with ranch-style homes and upmarket housing. However, there are plenty of urban amenities like big-box retailers, movie theaters, fast-food restaurants and coffee shops. You can take your dog to the Washington Park dog park or head there to play a game of tennis with your partner or best friend. Grand Canyon University also calls Alhambra home and there are several sporting events and concerts there that residents and visitors alike enjoy.\r\n\r\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/arizona\/phoenix-apartments\/north-mountain-neighborhood\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">North Mountain<\/a><\/h3>\r\nThis neighborhood has so much to offer.
