The Best Of Pinal County

Are you new to Pinal County? Welcome to your new home! This guide is for you.

Have you been here long enough to pick a side in the eternal debate on how to pronounce “Casa Grande?” Newcomers and long timers, alike, are mixed in their use of the Spanish pronunciation versus the Anglo one in which the “e” is dropped from “grande.”

No matter, this guide is for everyone!

Grande LIVING’s annual Best of Pinal County results are a detailed guide to the best providers of products and services as selected by our readers. These are the people and places that really give the Golden Corridor its shine, making it shimmer for residents and visitors.

Our numerous categories are broken down into sections about people, pets, services, lifestyle, shopping, and food and drink, covering most all the facets of your life here in this red-hot — on so many levels — slice of the desert.

We’re blessed with Phoenix’s dynamism, Tucson’s desert charm and a history of independence and resilience older than the Casa Grande Ruins.

This is where you can learn about the county’s stalwarts and upstarts and discover new favorites that might be one or several towns over from your own. Whether you’re looking for a bountiful burrito, a razor-sharp barber or an unbreakable bank, we’ve got a pick for you!

We love to celebrate excellence in our growing community, and it’s getting even easier to do as a rising tide and spirited competition raises all of our boats! So while our summer gets us dreaming about the beach, let’s ride the wave and support our best local businesses.
