“I think Chino comes down to three things; front porches, iced tea and neighbors. The front porch goes with the atmosphere, sitting out in the evening. The iced tea goes back to the good water that we have here, and then the neighbors. This town is small enough that if you’ve been here for very long everybody here is your neighbor.”
— Jack Miller, Chino Valley Mayor
