"Very pleasant neighborhood, still has some old Arizona charm"

Invergordon is a mini-arterial in Paradise Valley, running continuously from Mockingbird to Shea (where it turns into 64th St). The lots adjoining the street are mostly all 1-acre parcels, with a lot of '60s-'70s-'80s houses, low slung slump block structures, on a slab, with a flat roof and a fair bit of native vegetation. Through the boom years, 2002-2007, a lot of those houses were bulldozed for foam-and-stucco mansions, but enough still remain that it still looks like a quiet desert road.

The road is 35mph, and has curbs for some of its length. A median was added in 2006-2007, and can make it hard to access some of the houses (not all the cutouts match up with the driveways). A four-way stop at Doubletree Ranch is the only significant traffic control feature.

I have seen kids playing around the road, and it's kind of at that tipping point between being a quiet residential street and a real road. I would feel comfortable jogging or bicycling there, even at night.

In order to get to any businesses or restaurants, though, you have to go at least a mile. I think all of the street is in the Chaparral HS district, which is very good, and there is a Jewish school not far away.
