- If you are looking for quiet places to retire in Arizona on a budget then this Arizona vlog is for you. We highlight some of the more peaceful affordable places across Arizona for you to live. Some of these places include Yuma, Bullhead City, Tubac, Bisbee and some Northern Arizona. Most of this list really seems to focus around Southern Arizona.
Living in Arizona is quite a unique experience because of the vastness that the state offers. From the Sonoran Desert in the south to the high country in the north all the way up towards the Four Corners east and the Grand Canyon in the west. Known as the Grand Canyon state, Arizona is diverse in many ways. The state tree is the Palo Verde, the state cactus is the Saguaro, the state bird is the Cactus wren.

The concept of mini-retirement changed my life. I'm no longer waiting for some retirement paradise when I'm 65. It helps to know how to fund the lifestyle. You know, making money while you sip that piña colada by the beach does help. I wouldn't have been able to do it otherwise.
Yeah, people miss that part. You don't jet out to Puerto Rico with your life savings. Proper investing and a good business acumen are big pluses. Invest in the stock market, real estate, build businesses. That's just it.
Safe to say not everybody has the skill to pursue investing. But it's always easy to follow the advice of someone who knows how to i.e a financial advisor. You could anywhere between 10--40k with the right ones. Online businesses are a good bet too if you are savvy.
who is your advisor please, if you don't mind me asking?
Vivian Jean Wilhelm is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment
Thanks a lot for this suggestion. I needed this myself, I looked her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.
I just turned 51 and awfully late to investing with barely any portfolio except my 401k, I have a decent amount of cash saved up and with inflation currently soaring AGAIN, I’m getting worried about retirement, my intention is to retire at 65 atleast, so how best do I maximize my savings.
I completely understand your concerns. Navigating market uncertainties can be challenging. It might be beneficial consulting with a financial advisor to provide personalized insights based on your specific situation.
Agreed, I always emphasize the significance of having an advisor. This has not only help to revamp my portfolio but has also kept me afloat since the covid-19 outbreak to date. I'm only about 10% shy of my first million dollar after subsequent investments.
I will be happy getting assistance and glad to get the help of one, but just how can one spot a reputable one?
Her name is Annette Marie Holt can't divulge much. Most likely, the internet should have her basic info, you can research if you like
Thanks for sharing, I just looked her up on the web and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I will write her an e-mail shortly.
People need to consider deeded RV lots. You don't want to put your mobile home in a park where you pay rent, only to see the park bought out by a corporation that jacks up the rent. And a mobile home isn't really mobile without incurring a lot of expense.
Great point
It has happened in the Tampa section of Florida
Yep. Got the tee shirt.
Mobile home parks and full-time trailer parks are very profitable. And they sell for millions so only rich, ambitious individuals/investor groups (like Warren Buffett) can afford them. Warren's made a lot of money off the backs of (poorer) folks.
@@yesterdayfortoday592 yup!
I agree as I've twice been in this position. Not only raising the price, the rules change and you'll have to completely change your area
Arizona is an excellent place to be from.
We like in Kingman. A great place to live and retire! It’s 3300 feet so cooler than Ph. But you can get to the mountains to cool off or Bullhead City in the winter to warm up in an hour. Cheap housing too.
Ssshhhh
@@peacedove9513 I take it you also live here.
Would not want illegal immigrants running through my yards, I’m out. Thanks
Kingman is exactly where I'm focused on. I'm in SoCal and just waiting to see if this damn state starts getting its act back together with the Nov 5 election. If that fails, Kingman, here I come!
@@kenster865 please join us!
The times I’ve visited the USA I’ve noticed they are either so friendly lovely or so disgustingly rude
I think most interested in retirement locations want to know how close/far medical/doctor/hospital are.
Kingman- A mobile home in a RV park and temperatures at 100 or above for many months of the year. All for $200,000. It is difficult to imagine a more awful place to live.
Great video! You mentioned dispersed camp sites. That would be a cool video theme! Thanks for always showing us the best places
One thing many don't know about Show Low and points north: It gets COLD in winter, much like Chicago, especially over 6000 feet. Propane in expensive. If you like only three seasons, and one isn't winter, don't move here.
I LOVE IT HERE DON'T COME LOVE 4 SEASONS DON'T COME WE LOVE THE RAW LAND DON'T NEED MORE PEOPLE AND A BIG CITY VERY UGLY
AAVERY VERY COLD GAS IS HIGH PROPANE HIGH FOOD HIGH FAST FOOD HIGH
I should have tried Skull Valley or Camp Verde----I didn't know how cold it got at altitude. (and no OTA TV either).
Yeah it seems to be the hot spot for all the nomads Rv folk and van lifers
Buying up in St John, Concho and Showlow
Videos out daily on how their all going off-grid up there
Oh yeah and outside Williams off the I-180
@@anybodyoutthere3208 I have a nice house on 40 acres west of Concho and the Country Store. I got a mail-in offer to buy my property for $9,150. My new roof was over $40K. Land out here was $500 / acre, but they're selling two-acre lots for $12K. If they moved the decimal two places to the right in that offer, I'd go for it. ( It currently Zillows over $500K).
I love show low and Pinetop. Love it. Looking at investments now. Already own land out there.
"Out there" another eastern land pimp?
Investments???!!?
Smashed the line for sure! Good video.
Kingman has a bad crime & drug issue.
Yuma is actually a very nice and affordable place to live and retire.
Agreed. I would avoid Kingman.
I live outside of Kingman two years and the city has everything! Honestly, the Phoenix news at 6am leads each day with a fatal horrible car crash from drinking, or a police shooting of a shoplifter or an underage driver, or a murder-suicide or worse. I am absolutely not joking.
My Sister in law and nieces live in Kingman and Laughlin and they both say it’s ok but for the health care and you have to go Phoenix or Vegas for good health care. The one in Kingman lives in the newer neighborhoods which are really nice but there really is no shopping and she says you have to know what areas NOT to go to. The other one lives in Laughlin/Bullhead and says it’s pretty much a crap hole👎
Every place has its share of drugs & crime.
Last 2 winters we have been looking for a 6 month home for winter. Have been to all of these area's and only cross off Kingman, and Bullhead City. Green Valley south, Bisbee to Douglas, Lake Havasu possibly, Miami, Globe, Claypool. Don't want traffic jams, endless subdivisions. Have a good impression of Yuma.
Cheapest two bedroom studio in Tubac is 300k….
I can only dream about going back to Arizona which is heaven on earth to me. I would live anywhere in the state cause I love the heat and desert.
I love the way you explain everything and show everything easily and beautiful thank you so much 🙏🏻🙏🏼🙏🙏🏾❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I found a new home in Chino Valley for S299k. Beautiful area
Prescott is a great place so it is expensive. We love it.
Great if you can afford it but a lot of people can't.
North/North West Arizona is where I want to retire to.
I'd like to spend my summers on the road for the most part.
This video is not honest. No where is Arizona is affordable any more.
There is 20,000 more people in Yuma vs Flagstaff.
Great video. I had been looking at relocating to Kingman from CA, but after visiting there I would recommend people from CA either staying in CA or relocate to Oregon, Washington, New York, Canada, some place other than Kingman or Arizona. It gets hot and will affect their makeup and plastic surgery. CA's governor is doing a bang up job signing new laws which directly affect your freedoms, safety and livelihood. CA is a place where your tax dollars go to help fund stuff like the California Highspeed Rail, one of these centuries it may actually make it to Los Angeles, but it will never see a profit.
I thought Governor of CA was busy eating $1000 dinners at high end restaurants while he kept citizens locked in their own homes...guess that's what they want since they re-elected him.
And giving booze to the homeless.😂
@@UncleMilty Yeah that's his newest bravo plan. I've lived in CA for 59 years, I have seen first hand all the piss hole changes the dems have made to this once great state of CA.
Bisbee was great until they shut down the copper mine.
But is there WATER now and in the future? Just asking…..😊
None of these places is cheap
These charming Az. Towns will remain laid-back. affordable and kind, unless they are promoted on Social Media, like RUclips.
Then they'll join in the madness that is now taking] over.l Phoenix.
Oh yeah their being promoted by all kinds of traveling nomads, van life folks and RVers on RUclips
Every winter and spring they drive around every nook and cranny beleive me
I’ve watched them all
AZ is the spot
I'll stick with the Apache Junction area,east Mesa. The superstition mtns and salt river lakes are easily accessible. Heat,yes. Night life, yes!
Have you heard of Brookfield Residential Properties ULC---2800 acre a master plan development right by Apache Junction. It will have 5,000 homes. Your town of 38K in 10 years will balloon to over 70K+ Phase one, Blossom Rock has started with 5 developers. There will be at least 5 phases to this development. Its on the East side of Ironwood Dr, Ray road, south of hwy 60, right across from Radiance of Superstition Vista. Along with Dr-Horton, some say there will be 11,000 homes
@@threeftr3349,only one problem, WATER! The desert floor has dropped significantly over the years because of irrigation from deep wells. Now the Colorado River irrigation system is being affected by the lack of water. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next few years.
Gangs, homelessness, cost of living 3rd highest location in the nation to live(although Apache Junction is just outside Maricopa county saves much $ in gas tax)115 in the summer or more, crime is going to only get worse in the valley, and water shortages will increase.
areas closest to the border tend to have less trouble than everywhere else because there is such a good police/border control presance.
I agree ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great video
Checked Zillow, the homes for sale in all of these cities are ridiculously priced. Moving so far out for these prices would be stupid.
Nice looking place there now 👌 😀
Need to do a show on Best place for military retirement
That would have to be a very big budget
And CARTELS !!!!
Good luck 🍀
Have you ever done a video on Douglas Arizona?
Kingman is great.
I live in Lake Havasu City, AZ and I think Kingman needs a Costco. We cant have anything like that here in LHC
Bullhead City has Sam’s Club
@@danenorem5571 yes I go there every two months. Would rather go to Costco and we do but its 136 miles one way
Provide safe area’s Tucson, flagstaff, and Catalina foothills? 2024?
Anything on Lakeside or Pinetop?
what about Ajo Az, nice place to retirament
Bullhead is Arizonas most miserable city i believe.
There isn’t a good restaurant or motel in Bisbee.
It’s hipster central
Like being in the SF Bay Area but snobbier
Every shop has an unwelcome air when you walk in and interact
Yep
Hipster central now
Yea not a fan of bisbee.
@@coryballinger5307 For being on the right side of AZ it's really on the left. 🙃
@@UncleMiltythat's too bad 😢
I've lived in Bisbee, and I've lived in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Phnom Penh has better Mexican food than Bisbee.
You haven't talked about Arizona City? What are your thoughts about that area?
Lol 😂 I do want to be near California but in no way will I buy property there and be subject to their rules and laws. (Taxes and gun laws for example)
What exactly does "on a budget" mean? Are we not all on a budget of some sort? I mean, anyone who doesn't earn more than 7 figures and has no intention of retiring anyway?
It’s too hot for a mobile home or RV in Bullhead city.
The border is wide open !
Folks were saying Maricopa was the next Chandler 20 years ago. Never happened.
People say a lot of things.
Maricopa only has one road in and out, a terrible and reckless one at that. If they built a shorter spur to I 10 it would still just be another suburb and Dairy smelling dump.
@@wlbrobinson That road is a Blood Alley. Littered with death crosses.
Can you please do top 10 wine tasting video if you haven’t already shoulda checked lol
Can you do a review on Kearny AZ
I was raised in Kearny and it's gone to hell there's nothing left there I remember when I was a kid and was raised there it was nice not anymore everybody messed it up I won't even go back there no more
Why don't you show the areas you are talking about?
Why is their no one out walking around?
Because it's 120 degrees! 😮
Because you'll fry!
No homedepot or lowes in maricopa
It's not that great gets extremely cold. There really isn't that much to do I don't understand why people put these things up. Yes, some of these houses look good but brewery gulch is nothing but up interesting place to see people that get drunk and get high.
BULLSHIT...guy lists every tourist trap out there.....LOL......just try to buy a house there
Binomics has not reached this places yet?
What the Hell did you drink or smoke...
With the exception of perhaps Bisbee and Show Low, this video could have easily been renamed Arizona shit holes.
I see why people are not liking this area, it's not a party town,
I did not like Bisbee. Seems it was trying to hard and based on books on display in the book store, very woke.
# 9999 x 9999 x 9 .🎉
His Prison sentence, LIFE
It's a 20 minute drive from Kingman to bullhead...!
Living just above what amounts to an open border with Mexico? LOL no.
Trump forever
Trump forever in prison. So he doesn't rape, commit fraud, or try another insurrection. LOLOL
wrong channel, bub.
U on da rong channel@@camtizelfelt
Jesus forever!!
Nah, he’ll probably only get 5-10.
Trump 2024 🇺🇸
shut up.
Damn Straight Trump 2024!
To pronounce tuback correctly. It's TUBOCK. Tu pac and TUBOCK.
IT GETS TOO HOT IN ARIZONA IN THE SUMMER!!!!!
Water?
Soon there will be none.
Currently in Mesa - our house hold of 2 just paid $172 for water for the month.
@@joanwiebe3654 🤯 wow!
A $300,000 house is not a good deal for a senior sorry. Enjoyed the video.
Exactly, not exactly on a budget.
True
don’t move to Arizona
As someone who has lived here forever, it actually does seem like an attractive price, particularly in a decent area.
@@desertmodern7638
Still a popular retirement for some Illinoisans, many who have $600,000 (and up), homes there.
My place Mohave County was $65,000 and I'm over the moon thanks AZ. 🥲
Great video
Theres not really much of a low budget option here. Maybe 10 years ago or more there was
No one would wanna live in a mobile home park! 😂
Yeah they would.
I lived in Bisbee for over 20 years, and it is a Great place to live for older people.
I heard there was a problem with water. Is that true?
@@worldobserver3515 Yes the city water is garbage but thankfully there are a few places around town to get good drinking water for relatively cheap
Sierra Vista, Bisbee, Hereford, Tombstone, Douglas, and Benson - all great places with rich history!
I’m surprised he by passed Sierra Vista and Hereford for retirement consideration. We do have a large retirement population. It’s affordable, small but still has lots of amenities.
All being overrun by eastern urban urbanites and land pimps. We don't like you!
SV is my favorite place
Yuma, Bullhead city, anywhere in that low elevation western part of the state is crazy hot in the summer. Anywhere above 4000 feet is relatively comfortable, and that would be most of the state. I love Arizona, retired here near Portal in the SE corner at about 4,500 feet. It's nice. Don't even consider retiring here until you look at the elevation and summer temps.
Thanks for not mentioning Sierra Vista..We're trying to keep this place a secret!
LOL... Thanks for spilling it! :D
Too late, you just mentioned it. I almost bought a place there a few years ago. It's one of my choices in arizona.
Thanks for letting us know. But I believe that's reverse psychology you're using. It's probably a shit hole
@@Hard_Car_Life
It's a nice area. Military base has been there a long time, so lots of stores, restaurants and other businesses sprang up over the years. Plenty of water, as it sits between two mountain ranges. Not far from Mexico though. Has a very nice hospital that's quite new. Anyway, I liked my visit there.
In your exuberance to share what you've found you do realize these locations will not stay the way they are and in part because of your videos!
js
Thankful you haven't found our location! 😁
I love southern Arizona too, I always thought Sierra Vista and Bisbee would be good alternatives whenever I get to retire because I’m a blue collar worker and mid century old so I got a little more to go. 😊
Budget? You showed homes costing $500,000.😂😂😂😂
I guess it depends on what your budget is
Bullhead City. 🤣. Not in a million years.
Budget, my ass.
Kingman, AZ population is close to 35,000 but the city limits don't include a lot of the city. as it extends north so it's more than 35K. I don't suggest anyone move there as the city has a lot of poverty and an overwhelming sense of depression encompasses the people there. The city is losing retailers and the growth is mostly in track homes that appease Californian investors.
I'm fine with keeping Kingman the best kept secret 😉
@@Go_Vintage_with_Bri Visited Kingman last year, would not recommend it, it's too worn, old and impoverished.
@@paulbernacki641 Wow you got all that from one visit!
Kingman is not a place I would want to live. 👎
@@paulbernacki641 that depends on the neighborhood. Wallack Ranch and Destiny are very new homes.
This is bullshit unless you are living in a tent nothing cheap in arizona everyone from cal came made it expensive
Love the state, but…, your new liberal governor will FIU quick.
She is a Soros puppet. No good.
Illegitimate Governor
what d o u mean WILL?
She already has,
and since they need the border to remain open, don't expect any changes because
they can not lose the border assault in bringing down a nation
Hobbs is holding the gate open for everyone to walk in and with a snide smile on her face
@@anybodyoutthere3208 that's why she was installed.
Don't move to Arizona
Right. Snakes. Scorpions. Rednecks. Stay AWAY.
Not really an affordable video more like a get away from civilization video.
I love the Chiracauha/Portal area
it is a VERY remote chance for Phoenix sprawl to reach Maricopa because it is an island of private propert pretty much surrounded by Indian reservations.
I heard there are many apartment buildings going up in your area, and very little chance to alleviate the congestion of traffic due to the reservation.
Nice video. Thanks for the info. Do you have a video on buying property and moving off the grid to Arizona? What are the best counties for off grid living?
We don’t need more people moving here
I remember when there was nothing in Maricopa AZ
Corrupt government in Maricopa.
I don't want to retire in the heat, we're ya can't go outside. Bs
Fort Mohave, Oatman, Buckskin, Wenden, Bouse, Yarnell, Skull Valley, Chino Valley, Why, Clifton
Az is a terrible place to live. Don’t move there. It use to be good but not anymore. Expensive, crowded etc….
Golden Valley is the armpit of AZ
Ive lived in multiple cities and towns in Arizona for the last 25 years and I've yet to hear any freaking BANJO music.
