City of Buckeye

Well, apparently the city is waiting for someone to die before they put in traffic lights. Absolute fail that they continue to allow building out of control with complete lack of infrastructure for any of it.
I've tried to contact the city so many times and zero response. Kind of makes you wonder what kind of corruption is happening by city officials when they have more tax money than ever flooding in but cannot provide basic safety and traffic needs for citizens. The publically funded school built next to us got a traffic light overnight before they opened.... however the publicly funded city has been waiting for 5 years. ​

Totally bunch of idiots running buckeye. Thousands of new homes zero capacity roads. 3 stop signs in a row to get on the ten with no traffic lights. Building new shopping centers with worthless stores ! 3-4 takeout tacos 3 auto stores a car wash with water shortages one sit down restaurant. Total blithering idiots don't have a clue how to run buckeye . 2022 and getting worse building devolopment after devolpment with no infra structure year after year with no road improvements where the lines of cars getting on a highway or jamming local one lane country roads to come out onto jam packed stop sign roads with no lights every street you pick. Beautiful area with nothing done right and the buckeye shopping area is the worst layout in the country to avoid going there at all costs Thankful for litchfield and Goodyear who did an excellent job for their surround community. Great roads great shopping great restaurants . . They make MARICOPA Govt look like the shit heads they are!

There is literally nothing here other than fast food chains, chain restaurants, basic shopping, and random track houses thrown into the background. There is nothing to do here. Thank goodness there is major interstate freeway (I-10) running right through the place so there is an escape route! I do not come here voluntarily.

The hiking is amazing at Skyline park with a new trail to explore every weekend and it's so easy to find groups to join up with to make new friends. Also, I should mention this park is FREE to the public-Awesome!

In August of 1958 a pair of Yankee parents from New Hampshire gave birth to their third baby girl who weighed in at 9 lbs 11 oz. It was me. They had wanted a boy after having two beautiful little girls at home. They had moved west for my father to teach high school. They had a third girl born during monsoon and that is just the way it turned out. My best friend (still)was born a month earlier in July. I came from the desert even though our folks did not. I do not remember living in Buckeye - the folks moved "to town" when I was almost three. We would go back to visit. My bestie us still out there and each time I go out there it is some element of a homecoming even if I don't remember it I feel it. I also just what was going through my Yankee parents minds when they hit the "town" of Buckeye.....

It's City of Buckeye now, and the people around here seem to be proud of the title fo city. It is indeed a city, but only in terms of the area it covers. It is mostly rural. There is not much, if anything, within walking distance of your home base. There is very little, almost no, public transportation. There are not a lot of good restaurants. There seems to be nothing in the realm of exciting places to shop.
