For 15 years, In&Out Magazine has been the definitive source of “Everything that’s going on” in and out of the community. We thank you, our readers, as well as the businesses that support the magazine through advertising, for that opportunity. But with little going on, and many businesses suspending or canceling their ads during the Covid-19 crisis, we are suspending publication of the magazine and web sites for the month of May. 


Anthem Parkside: A Premier Master-Planned Community

Anthem Parkside: A Premier Master-Planned Community

The largest HOA in Anthem, Parkside contains more homes and more amenities than any other community in the North Valley. Parkside straddles I-17: The west side is in Phoenix and the east side is in Maricopa County. A whopping 36 percent of the town is devoted to open space.

Anthem is the largest town in the North Phoenix Corridor, straddling I-17. While the west side of town is in Phoenix, the east side is in Maricopa County. See our Anthem Overview for a comprehensive description of the town, its governance and amenities.
