New to the area with under-18s in your household? North Scottsdale local Rishita Shah is here to pass along her tips for your teen. Shah, a 17-year-old senior at Xavier College Preparatory high school, shares some of her favorites:

 

“Arizona is a beautiful area, and there are so many wonderful activities that it offers. The environment is very friendly and welcoming, which makes it such a wonderful place to live in. There is so much for all types of people, and I enjoy spending time with my family and friends on the weekend exploring the different activities.”
