Is north Phoenix more affluent than northern Scottsdale or cave creek?

I am new to the region and building up/saving for a house. I want to purchase one in the more affluent areas. I grew up in the hoods near gangs and break-ins in the northeast and aspire to get away from that type of noise and chaos as I start a family.

Which part of the metro has quieter neighborhoods and more involved parents and active/fit neighborhood residents based in your time living around the towns of these places?

I am using affluence as the barometer for this and understand that the northern part of the metro has more amenities and more expensive zip codes which is why I labeled the title as such.

My budget for a house is 800k-1.5M

Thank you in advance.

Training for 1st 70.3- do I need to do run+cycling same day? Can one successfully prepare via keeping all training separate?

Baxkground: I've ran several half marathons. I've gone through different workout phases since 17. Starting with general muscle building and lifting + running in teens+ wrestling. Ran 10-13mi a dozen times. Running is by far my strongest event. I did a cycling phase for 6-7 months building up to doing 20mi a session for a month before taking a break. I started doing running + cycling on same session workouts but I injured my groin. Worked my swim up from barely being able to do a lap to a PR on my 28th birthday of 1.35 miles in 100 minutes. I understand I have to bring my swim time, down tremendously! I'm more concerned with training /stacking frequency on a given, week.

Like I said, I injured myself, Stopped, healed. Quit my job last year. So, I have much more free time to train now and want to do it the optimal way. Do you guys stack running and cycling on the same day? If ls, what is the time or mileage duration you do that is able to be consistently repeated during training up to a race? I overtrained time on top of my physical job that exacerbated my recovery. I was doing 6mi run and 10mi bikes. But also moving machinery around. Never really had recovery days. And I wasnt lifting. I was doing straight cardio and stuff. What leg exercises should I incoproate to maintain muscle durability? Calisthenics or machine wise.

Thanks.
