VAL VISTA LAKES RESIDENTS LOVE THE GILBERT POLICE Gilbert AZ is known as one of the fastest growing Towns in the country, and it also has a reputation of being a very friendly family oriented Town.

No city is completely crime free, so over time we've had a couple of automobile burglaries in the community; and once a group of teenagers decided to have fun with the boats. On each occasion when the police responded, they were very fast responding, and very polite and efficient. One evening my neighbor woke me up at... 04/24/2010
