Welcome to Carefree
A luxuriously laidback town.
In keeping with the charmingly cheerful nature of her name, the luxuriously laidback town of Carefree is lined with lighthearted street names, a la Easy Street and Ho and Hum. Awe-inspiring views of gigantic granite boulders and massive rock outcroppings dominate this part of Arizona’s high Sonoran habitat, in fact, spectacular stone formations are liberally sprinkled across the surrounding terrain.
