Residents of a remote desert development in Arizona are begging for basic infrastructure, after being forced to rely on food trucks for supplies.
Tartesso was originally announced as a development in Buckeye, Arizona, in 2005 and currently has some 10,000 residents, many of whom agree that there are too few amenities.
The development is along the Sun Valley Parkway about 40 miles west of Phoenix, what was once known as the 'Road to Nowhere'.

Omigod! They have to drive 15 minutes to get to a store? And a 35 minute commute to work? AND NO STARBUCKS???
I drive 30 minutes to a store to shop where the stores aren't infected with cockroaches riding in on the locals. Added benefit is no immigrants being surely with the staff because they think the stores should give them stuff for free or close to it. No shopper is leaving carrying the groceries on their heads.
ReplyDeleteEveryone knew of the risks, moved there anyway.
ReplyDelete"Residents say that they love how quiet the community is, away from the state's largest city, Phoenix." Yet they are complaining that they don't have the crap that Phoenix does.
ReplyDeleteI drive a half hour to get Diesel or gas and the same for groceries. The only snag is I need to bring an ice chest along to buy ice cream.
I live just about 15 minutes or 15 miles from there, in a rural area with dirt roads myself on an acre in former cattle grounds. I have zero sympathy for those bastards. First of all,...they built on my former shooting area and off-road stomping grounds, so they can get stuffed for that alone. But it was incumbent upon them to do their own research as to whatever promises were made to them were based in any kind of reality. It is standard practice for realtors and home sellers here in this market to promise the moon and stars. When we moved to our place 20 years ago, we had it worse than those turds. But the realtor (claiming inside knowledge of the property market locally) explained how (she lied) that a major grocery chain had bought this nearby plot, and this rough road was due to be paved by the county, blah, blah, blah, ad nauseam. It was all bullshit. So it took 15 years for that road to get paved, and the grocery store finally showed up last year. (Only had to wait 19!) But that's ok, because being out here away from the city crap is worth it. And by the way, the article is lying. They do have a gas station there. A huge Circle K sits right near the main entrance to the community. But it does charge ridiculous prices compared to elsewhere not too far away.
ReplyDeleteI lived just south of there 40+ years ago and never had an issue - even before the interstate was operating. Ijits moving in from CA and wherever; too dumm to drive around before buying. Get what they deserve.
ReplyDeleteHell, I have to drive to another state (Kentucky) just to go to Walmart. You can bet your ass no blue haired freaks are coming down my road, though! Eod1sg Ret
ReplyDeleteNo Starbucks? Get a loan and build one. Fentanyl Joe surely will forgive you that loan.
ReplyDeleteOn the plus side they might be safer out there in a nuclear war than if they lived closer to civilization.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely.
DeleteInstead of dying right away in a flash they can starve to death if they have enough water to not die of dehydration.
Makes living next to the Greatest Lake a helluva lot better than there, you don't want to irradiate fresh water you plan on stealing for your people.
Each and every one of those idiots are graduates of the college "indoctrination camp" system, and can't figure out why it is the way it is. It is sooo far for them to go into town, but they would expect people to travel all that way, work for minimum wage, on foot, uphill, both ways, in 112 degree heat, with no shade, even at night, like our parents did just to get to school.;>)

Up until last week I lived two miles south of that utopia.
ReplyDeleteDid I miss the part where they were forced into this environment against their will?
ReplyDeleteFags!
ReplyDeleteChutes Magoo
Did someone start up a new classified nuclear program?
ReplyDeleteThey got water? If so, they're good.
ReplyDeleteif it's so bad, I would expect someone with an entrepreneurial spirit to open a store. sell shares to the community, let them invest in it to give you starting capitol.
ReplyDeletethe problem is I bet you the local town planning board has zoned things like that right out of existence.
