Sister Wives star Kody Brown has packed up his four wives and cornucopia of kids and high-tailed it to Flagstaff, Arizona, and it appears that the Sister Wives star is already starting to build a new Brown Family Cul-de-Sac in the Grand Canyon State!
Kody, who announced back in July that he and his super-sized family were packing up and leaving Las Vegas, recently spent $820,000 on property for his family’s new Arizona homes. According to the Browns’ Twitter postings, the family made the move in early August.
The clerk of Coconino County, Arizona, confirmed to Radar Online that Kody, 49, purchased a plot of vacant land in Flagstaff. The land has split into four parcels (presumably one for each of his wives.)
Kody’s third wife Christine appears to have made out the best in the deal. Her parcel reportedly measures 5.16 acres and cost the Browns $300,000. For some reason, Christine’s plot is considerably larger and more expensive than the parcels belonging to Kody’s other three wives, Janelle, Meri and Robyn.
According to records, Janelle and Robyn were each given a parcel of land measuring 2.42 acres. (Each parcel cost $170,000.) Meri’s land is 4.48 acres and cost $180,00. Kody is listed on each of the parcels with each wife. (Interestingly, Robyn—who is now Kody’s only legal wife—is also listed on Christine’s super-sized parcel, along with Kody.)
Radar reported last month that Christine put her Las Vegas home on the market for $675,000. She originally purchased the house for $443,315 in 2012. The Vegas homes belonging to Robyn, Janelle and Meri have yet to go on the market. (This means that, if you’re eager to get your mitts on Meri’s infamous wet bar home, you’ll have to wait a bit longer.)
In July, Kody explained why he and his family are moving to Arizona.
“As much as we’ve loved making our home and memories here in Las Vegas, we are excited to embark on a new adventure in Flagstaff, Arizona,” he told People. “We are looking forward to cooler temperatures, the mountain air, scenic views, and the slower lifestyle of Flagstaff.”
Kody has a total of 18 children with his four wives, but currently, only about 10 are still living at home.
In a sneak peek for the new season of ‘Sister Wives,’ Christine boasted of their new town, “It’s green, there’s four seasons. It’s a little bit smaller, quite a bit smaller than Las Vegas.
“Vegas has been good for us, I’m not saying that it hasn’t, it’s been really good. It’s been great for our kids,” she added. “They’ve all really grown here and done so many wonderful things and it’s been great for us. I’m just ready for the next adventure.”
Kody added that, “There’s mountains, we’ll be living at 7,000 feet elevation. Small town, quiet, beautiful college.”
Meri tweeted that anyone who knows her knows that she loves “the mountains, the peace, calm & serenity that can be found there.”
Let’s hope there aren’t any catfish in the mountains…
In the sneak peek clip, Robyn told ‘Sister Wives’ fans that they will “see all this craziness in the next season.”
Season 12 of ‘Sister Wives’ will air later this year.

Why purchase 4 parcels of land when Kody all along only wanted to build one massive home for all 4 wives and children? Doesn’t seem cost effective
This family is so disgusting. Sharing a man, ewwww. Cody is a condescending, arrogant little prick who needs a hairstyle. They aren’t sister wives. One is actually married to him and the rest are nothing more than concubines.
Interesting that Kody told Meri they couldn’t afford to give her $ 40,000 for her bed and breakfast
But yet they have $820,000 to spare for housing in flagstaff???
love watching this but codey is horrible to meri compared to the other wives always pushes meri out really don’t no how she puts up with the coldness towards her seems Robyn is his favourite wife is that because she the youngest of all the wives and the others don’t seem to back meri as much either love meri in this series yet she never gets to truly shine as codey always seems to put her down a
Isn’t it ironic that 5 years ago Grody was the one who chose Las Vegas and called it his ‘safe haven’ and ‘sanctuary’ but now he acts like he has to run and move again?
But why – of all the places in the world – did they choose Flagstaff?
Please don’t get me wrong, Flagstaff is a nice city but he could have picked something more closer to Meri’s BnB or some place more posh/glam or simply a state where there are no issues with polygamy.
Of course Robyn needs to be listed on Christine’s super-sized parcel too because Christine is the only ‘stay-at-home’ full time mom with no own income. Robyn is not only Grody’s legal wife but she seems to be the mastermind behind that infamous jewelry collection which could be loaned on.
They needed a storyline.
I’m confused. I thought Meri had a new man, and she wasn’t moving to Arizona. Another season of talking about being catfished. UGH! I don’t watch much anyway. The Ashley’s recaps are SO MUCH better!
Maybe Robyn and Christine will have a huge joint house and Robyn’s small land will be for all the older kids who still live at home.. And why does Meri need the 2nd biggest plot of land? He is barely home with all over Lula travels and B&B

Oh please. Kody will wear or do anything if it’s for a picture, a post, or any attention whatsoever!
How the f can they afford that?
That was my first thought!
Christine looks amazing!
Meri is going to have a 4.46 acre wet bar and the remaining will go to the rest of the house.
Wow Christine has lost a ton of weight.
