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. 


Sonoran Foothills: Classic Master-Planned Community

Sonoran Foothills: Classic Master-Planned Community

One of the larger HOA-governed communities in the North Valley, Sonoran Foothills has more amenities than most nearby communities — all the things you’d expect in a master-planned development. While it has gated and non-gated sections, the central community center, pool and other common features create the sense of a cohesive community.
