Gilbert, Arizona, is a charming place to visit and is Arizona’s best-kept secret. When I visited for the first time, I was surprised to find a modern and progressive city with a friendly small-town feel.
Just a short drive southeast of Phoenix, the historic district downtown reminds you of something from a road trip in an old movie with iconic signage and storefronts.
While the city of Gilbert has that quaint small-town feel, it is big on activities and things to see and do. With almost 10 million square feet of retail and designated open space for entertainment and recreation, life in Gilbert is thriving.
