Live in, curious about, heard of the city of Maricopa? Time to make a post!

Had no idea one of Arizona's most busy counties is named Maricopa, and there's also a city named Maricopa? Maybe, maybe you hold off posting, for just a sec, while you ponder if your post might be better made in a sub like /r/phoenix .

Pet sitting or cleaning jobs?

Hello! I live in the Maricopa Area, and have had no luck getting a job for some time now. I was wondering if anyone knew of odd jobs in which I could clean for someone and/or watch pets. I’m in a pretty tough situation at the moment, and am in need of making some extra cash.

If you had the chance to change one thing about this city, what would it be?

Out of curiosity, if you had the opportunity to change one thing about the city of Maricopa, what would it be? Would it be related to the 347? Adding a Target? A Chick-fil-a?

Let’s see what everyone says!!!

Irritation from Tap Water?

Does anyone else have issues with skin irritation from their water? I know the chlorine level in the water is very high (typically high enough to start out within range for my pool without adding chlorine), but we have been noticing extreme skin irritation and sensitivity in the last year or so, and it seems to be after exposure to the water.

How to get a job at 16?

I turned 16 last November and I immediately started applying basically everywhere. I have had only 5 interviews at this point, two of them sending an email saying ng I didn’t get the job. The others never reaching back even when I leave a follow up email. I just keep applying to every business I can think of but I’m coming up dry. Is there something I’m doing wrong? I turn 17 in November and I graduate this year. I have no experience, but I’ve babysat a lot and other small jobs like that. At this point I’m willing to do any job because I need to have a car for college because I’m planning on going to GCU.

Musicians?

My brother and I have a house in Maricopa. We play a mix of instruments, but we have equipment (drums, guitars, bass) and looking to see if there is anyone else that plays music on their downtime looking to jam out

How deep do you generally need to drill for wells in the area?

Hi, I calculated the digging of a well that might require me to go 400 to 600 at a max of 60$ per foot. I am thinking I might move to Arizona and would prefer to be isolated. It comes to quite a price but may be worth it. What kind of rock do you usually find in this area? What do you pay for a foot of drilling in the area generally? I don’t know enough about geology to know if these are sensible questions. The elevation of a sight Im looking at is about 1200 feet.

Anyone play Warcry or other table top games?

Sup!

I've recently gotten more into Warcry and tabletop gaming in general.

Sunflower field

I’m wanting to go check out the huge sunflower field in Maricopa. Can anyone confirm if the flowers are still in bloom in this heat? It’s a drive for me to get there so prefer to know in advance before wasting time. Thanks

Headlights at Dawn

Mornings are slowly getting dimmer and the drives a little slower. Please start checking for headlights before you drive off or pass oncoming, especially heading towards Casa Grande where it's two lanes and nobody's going 50 MPH as posted.

Witnessed a near head on collision this morning because oncoming had no lights on and the sun was barely up.

What's the new building going in next door to our public library?

No sign outside, and when I asked someone at the post office, they didn't know either.
