2008 in Surprise, AZ
January 1st, 2008 Categories: Surprise AZ General info
Happy New Year Surprise, Arizona! 
Another year and more growth has gone by. Our city continues to grow and gain recognition nationally as a great area of the Phoenix Valley to “live, work, and play”.
With local real estate and the bickering of the city council controlling the headlines in 2007 we hope for a more positive year in regards to those two issues.
2008 welcomes newly appointed mayor Lyn Truitt and two new council members in John Williams and Richard Alton.
Real estate locally hit a slow patch in the fall of 07′ but buyers for homes in the area have picked up since Thanksgiving. Sellers still have an uphill battle ahead in 2008 with stiff competition from the builders and now the bank-owned properties. There is sunshine ahead for everyone….
Big buzz on the upcoming Superbowl in Glendale. Some worldly exposure for the Phoenix West Valley should do the city good. Will New England go all the way? Who can beat them? Is Dallas coming to town in February? We will see…. I know those of you trying to cash in on renting your home for the Superbowl want to know so you can list your home on Craigslist in the cities of the AFC and NFC champions. Good luck!

Yep, we sure are…. According to a Washington based private research firm, Surprise, AZ is the safest city in Arizona. We are also number 33 on the safest cities in America.
Published in the Congressional Quarterly, a report titled “City Crime Ranking: Crime in Metropolitan Amercia” has put Surprise as the highest ranked city in Arizona. The research was based on 378 cities in America with at least a population of 75,000 people.
Good job to the Surprise police department. Thanks to our residents for keeping our city safe.
Have a great holiday season
