The greater Sedona area houses about 20,000 people spread over three communities, all surrounded by public land so growth is limited and the environment highly protected. Stunning scenery and lots of access to the land for the enjoyment of nature also attracts about 3 million visitors/year who contribute to the quality of life with the demand they bring for hi-quality restaurants, and other things to do. Sedona is centered in the Verde Valley which hosts a growing wine country, even more diversity in nature settings and experiences, and expanded access to community services and shopping choices.
