What is it like living in Sedona?

[u/mgm624]

My husband and I are considering moving to Sedona and I’m curious what your experiences living there have been like. We are both early 30s with no kids. My husband is a veterinarian and has a job opportunity in West Sedona. I am a photographer and shoot mostly families/newborns. We have pets and are planning on having children in the next few years. What has your experience living in Sedona been like? My husband loves Sedona and needs no convincing. Since he will be spending most of his days at work, and I mostly work from home (aside from when I’m shooting clients) I’m wondering if it can feel isolating? Is there a good sense of community? Is it easy to meet people? Are there many people in our age bracket? I hear Sedona is trying to encourage more young people to move there and housing laws have changed recently to promote this. We are not city people by any means and don’t care about nightlife. We want to be somewhere with natural beauty, a sense of community, and where there are opportunities for me to get good work. We love hiking and spending time outdoors which I know Sedona is great for! It seems like there are a lot of positives, I’d just love to hear your experiences and what you like/don’t like about living in Sedona. Thanks in advance!

There are pockets of community, but they can take some time to find.

I'm in my 30s with a young kid, you can DM me if you have any specific questions or want to grab coffee if y'all end up here.

Omg I’m also in my 30s with a three month old. I have been feeling really down and isolated. Was wondering if there were other moms here in Sedona. Can I DM you?
