![PROS and CONS of Living in Tucson Arizona [2024 UPDATE]](/img/1.gif)
You had my heart when you said saving money. Love the video ♥️♥️
Wonderful! Thanks so much for the view and comment! Much more great content to come!!!
Haven't spent much time in Tuscon but my wife and I spent an anniversary in Marana and we LOVED IT!
Yes, I love Marana too! Thanks for sharing and commenting! (And thanks for watching the video!)
Loved the video! I am a 65 year old Californian who is planning to move to Tucson within the next 5 years. I just spent last weekend there visiting cousins who always lived there. I have always loved southern AZ especially the Tucson area. Thanks again for the info. I loved the pro "dry heat" reason. I live next to Laguna Beach, a complete opposite!
Very cool! I work with many buyers from California! (You could probably tell from the video! 😆) The weather has been perfect in Tucson and Vail lately. If you have any questions about Tucson or the surrounding areas, I would love to assist! And of course when you move here, I would love to be your go-to real estate agent! 😊
I'm glad I found your channel! Love Tucson!
Wonderful! Welcome to the channel! Much more Tucson content to come! Please come back and hang out with us again!
Visited Tucson about 1.5 year ago - went to Borderlands Brewing Company for their beer - pretty neat place!
Great video!
Very cool! Yes we have fun pubs and breweries in Tucson and in surrounding areas by Tucson. Some haven’t fully reopened yet, as we are all still in quarantine. Thanks so much foe the view and comment! Much more great content to come!
Nice video, AZ land of the extra tall cacti! Just visited there!
Very cool! Lots of great things in Arizona, for sure! Thanks for the view and comment!
Thanks for the comment!
I lived there in Tucson from 1984 to 1987. I was sent there by the Air Force. At first I didn’t like it because it was a desert and I did know anyone. I remember watching a commercial on my rented TV in the dormitory, the guy on tv said “Tucson, call it Home”! And I was like “ you want me to call this desert Home?” . But soon I found Mount Lemmon, Sabino Canyon, Catalina mountains and I Loved it! The people are very nice! I’ve lived in my home state of California for the last 35 years and I love it here too. I’ve always wanted to go back and retire in Tucson. I visit Arizona every few years and I always remember the good times cruising on Speedway Blvd on the weekends on my motorcycle and hanging out at the Wildcat House. Great times!
Thank you so much for sharing your story. It’s funny but I know so many people who say similar things! Until you start realizing all the outdoor activities, fun restaurants, and get to know the people, it’s hard to really enjoy Tucson and all it has to offer. I’m glad you enjoyed your time in Tucson. If you ever make your way back here, I’d love to meet you and be your Tucson real estate agent! ❤️ Have a great week!
@@TucsonArizona great, thank you!
My grandma lived here in the early 2000’s and she loved it, the only downside she mentioned was the summer heat being so dry 😂 but the areas beautiful I’m jealous you get to be a real estate agent out there
Thanks so much for sharing! I agree with your grandma-so hot and dry in the summer! Thanks for the view and comment!
Very true! It can be humid but still not nearly as uncomfortably humid as other places. It does help cool things off in the summer though, for sure! Hoping this summer brings us more rain than last year! 🤞
When you have to show a home at 2:45 in the afternoon in Tucson in July, you might not be quite so envious . . .
Yep, summers are hot for sure! But October through May, I’m in heaven! 😁
Great video. Thanks for the valuable information!
My pleasure! Thanks for the view and comment and feedback!
Love your delivery on our pros and cons on moving or vacationing in Tucson AZ.
Thank you so much! That means a lot to me! 🥰
Love Tucson! Never plan on moving.
Thanks so much for viewing and commenting! I feel the exact same way...stay tuned for much more Tucson content in the near future! I put out a Tucson video every Thursday!
Omg thank you so much where going there this week to see if we’re gonna move there
Oh wow so glad you found this channel! 😊 😁 Let me know if I can answer any questions about the city and surrounding areas!!! Have a great trip!
We love Arizona!
Me too! My favorite city (next to Tucson, of course!) is Sedona! Can’t get enough of that red rock! Thanks so much for the view and comment! ❤️
I live on the East Side of Tucson and I love it. I bought a home in the Wingate Subdivision on the southeast side in 2001. Tucson is quiet and peaceful for a mellowed out person (68 years old) like myself. This is a dry, desert, mid size city. I usually say to friends; Tucson has everything but the beach.
I totally agree! I love it here!!! ❤️
Nice.. thank you for sharing. ❤
My pleasure! Thanks for checking out the channel! 🌵😎
Great video, very informative
Thank you for the kind words and for checking out the channel!
Thanks for sharing such an informative video. If/when I decide to move there, I will be in touch.
That would be wonderful! Tucson would be lucky to have you! And thank you so much for your view and comment!
Nice video, AZ is awesome
Thanks so much! I love Tucson too!
Hi
I am a CAT and left here 36 years ago and I wished I watched this before leaving San Diego, Ca at least it Rained!
I can't wait to go back.
Thank you!
BEARDOWN!
Bear down Arizona! 🐱
Osm video thanks for sharing good content with us😃😍🥰
Thank you so much for your comments and view! I greatly appreciate your kind words! Glad you enjoy the content!
As an international student from a city, I found Tucson like a ghost town in the beginning but I am liking it more and more.
Interesting perspective! Yes I suppose if you had moved to this city from a much, much bigger city, Tucson would feel quite small. As a native Tucsonan, I often run into people I know from my childhood. Tucson is like a small, big city 😊 Thank you for viewing and commenting on the video! Much appreciated!
My son , having done his MBA from Arizona State University, Tempe , doing job here , very recently he joined here , it looks like a ghost town to us really , not a single man can be found , from India ,I feel depressed , but now your comment will make me cheerful coz ,u r liking it more and more , let's wait and see
@@sunandabhattacharjee6275 it won’t ever be like India though but Tempe should be better as its near Phoenix.
@@cayanaraycaudhuri yeah 😊 , Tempe is much better ,
@@sunandabhattacharjee6275 although I realized later that Tucson is a very different type of city. Can’t expect it to be Calcutta.
Great video
Thanks for the view and comment! Glad you enjoyed! I had fun making this video! Many more Tucson videos to come! Have a great weekend!
Looking for a change from Phoenix, is it easy to get approved?
Thanks so much for your view and comment! You would definitely want to speak with a mortgage lender for the answer to that question. I know several fantastic mortgage lenders here in Tucson so contact me directly and I’ll give you all of their information. They could tell you if you are prequalified and if so, what type of loan you would qualify for and for how much, and they could also tell you what your estimated interest rate would be. Email, call or text me if you would like more information! Have a great day!
Loved it kept it exciting trying to figure out where you fit in
Thanks for the view and comment! Much more great Tucson, Arizona content to come! Stay tuned!
*I just drove through Tucson for the first time last week.*
Great! The weather is perfect here right now!
A nice intro video to Tucson. I got into Arizona’s graduate school so I am moving there at the end of the year
Very cool! Please check out other videos on this channel about things to do here! Welcome to Tucson Arizona! 🌵🌵🌵
I am planning to apply to the University of Arizona. Your video was helpful and well-researched. Thank you so much for the information!
Awesome! I went to the UofA! Beautiful campus! I post a lot of videos on this channel about things to do and food to eat here, so feel free to continue to check out other videos on the channel about this place.
About to perform here. So nervous but excited!!! At least I know one friend who moved here.
Awesome! So excited for you! ❤️
Loving your intro, I can do a video like this for Barbados Thanks for the video idea.
My pleasure! Thanks for the view and comment!

Super fantastic
So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching the video! Please keep coming back to this channel for more great content about finances, family, and living a rich lifestyle in Tucson, Arizona and the rest of the country!
Looking to move there soon !
Awesome! Let me know if you have any questions about Tucson or real estate in general! Welcome to Tucson arizona!
You forgot to mention dust devil's...I love Tucson... My first time there I instantly fail in love with it...
Yes, Tucson is a special place… ❤️😎🌵☮️
Thank you for mentioning crime rates, I really appreciate that and I have to be honest when you mentioned you’re a REALTOR®️ I was sure you’d avoid that topic. I’m considering taking a job there, just not sure I want to swap one violent city for another.
Sounds good. I actually have another video on the channel just about crime rates in Tucson. I recommend anyone moving to Tucson check out the website neighborhoodscout.com. Reach out to me if you have any questions!
If you’re afraid of urban violence, trying farming. I understand there are a lot of agricultural properties available . . .
@@danieldravot341 I grew up in one of the most violent neighborhoods in the US. I wouldn’t say it’s about being afraid, as much as tired of all the violence. Not sure farming is for me but thanks for the suggestion.
@@GhostSal, there’s an urban mentality in this country today that is difficult to avoid.
I recently mentioned to a gentleman in the local Kroger affiliate that the fresh donut display had tissues for his use and that sticking his bare hand into the display was unsanitary.
He angrily told me to mind my own business, and he lifted his shirt to show his concealed pistol.
There is something dreadfully wrong with some of the population today, but it is more prevalent in urban areas. Even in Tucson.
@@danieldravot341 I turned the job down that I was thinking to accept over there, it was an official offer after a long process too. I just wasn’t sure It was something that would make me happy and when you start getting older money is only one consideration. It was with CBP and maybe it was foolish to turn down such a good opportunity but too late now.
Would like some insight on the putter parts of Tuscon. Don’t want to be close to city. Maybe 10-20 miles out. Would like maybe 1 acre. Looking at coming out June.
Absolutely! Call, text, or email me any time and I’ll tell about our different areas of town and suburbs. All my contact info is in the description below each video. I’m working on making videos about the different communities. Thanks for the view and comment! Looking forward to hearing from you!
Are the trains incredibly loud in downtown Tucson? Are there a lot of trains that pass through downtown? Seeking apartment and I have found several downtown but I am not certain about the noise factor. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you.
To be honest I don’t live downtown so I can’t speak to the frequency of the trains but I personally think they can be noisy especially if you are a light sleeper. However downtown is a busy area well into the night, so there are many of other noisy things downtown, from partiers to dogs, etc… so I’m not sure if the train would be the loudest thing to worry about. Hope that helps!
Waw its really awsome.... Love from india❤️
Thanks so much for the view and comment! Glad you enjoyed! 😊
I have never been to AZ but I know some people that live out there and it seems like a great place to live. Especially people that want to move from CA to AZ since CA is getting very overpopulated and is expense.
Yes! I will have a video on that very topic (moving from Cali to AZ) coming up soon! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Arizona 🥰❤️😍
Thanks so much for your view and comment! Yes I love AZ!!!
Born&raised here as well
Cool! Thanks for the view and comment! Did you agree with the list overall? Much more Tucson content to come-I post a Tucson video each Thursday. Have a great week!
Is cash for condos an Arizona thing? I have seen a few condos that want cash only. I am used to people getting loans to buy. Is N. Wilmot Rd and E Broadway safe areas? How close to the University are they? Thank you!
Hey, there! All good questions! I'm actually not sure about other states but in Arizona many condos are hard to finance so cash is often required; it depends on the condo itself. A lender would be able to tell you if a particular condo is approved for financing, but even then, it is usually only approved for conventional financing, (as opposed to VA or FHA). Broadway/Wilmot is about a 15 minute drive to the UofA but Broadway is a busy road so if you take Broadway to get there it may be closer to 20 minutes. I recommend the website neighborhoodscout.com to research crime. In general that block isn't the best area of Tucson but isn't the worst. West of Wilmot tends to have less crime than east of Wilmot, but that intersection is very close to a mall and that attracts a little more petty theft. Feel free to contact me with additional questions about Tucson and real estate! kimberly.mihalka@exprealty.com. Thank you for your view and comment!
Pros… more affordable living compared to Pheonix. several fun things to do here. Short drive to places such as Mount Lemmon and Tombstone. The weather is nice most of the year. Cons… average crime rate like most cities. Increase in homeless population.
I definitely feel more Pros here! We love living here!
Hoping to visit next year if possible 😊
That would be wonderful! Hope you enjoy your trip!
@@TucsonArizona yes! Hopefully things will ease up and we'll be able to travel. Looks wonderful places to visit and hiking opportunities.
Absolutely! October through March are the best times to visit! Make sure you check out Sabino Canyon and Mount Lemmon for hiking!
@@TucsonArizona great thanks for the tip. Will do. Have a great evening 😊
My pleasure
As a native Phoenician I am going to take the plunge and move in March. I am considering a career change from wholesale real estate to getting licensed.
Cool! Please reach out to me if you need anything or want to collaborate on anything with this fellow Native Arizonan!
@@TucsonArizona Thanks and that will be awesome.
We will be in touch! All my contact info is in the description below the video! :)
@@TucsonArizona Ok for sure
Wow
Thanks for your view and comment! It means a lot to me!
What is a good average monthly budget for a single person (who might be renting) in Tucson?
That’s a tough one… Tucson’s definitely getting more expensive… check out the link www.bestplaces.net/cost_of_living/city/arizona/tucson to learn more. Rent has gone up recently too; not sure if it will go down if it becomes more of a buyers market soon… Thanks so much for the view and comment!
This was really informative. Looking to leave Cleveland and move to either Tucson or Phoenix but I’m leaning more towards Tucson.
So glad it was helpful! Thanks so much for your view and comment! Coincidently I have a video coming out next week on this channel comparing Phoenix and Tucson, but basically Phoenix is much much bigger and is really good for jobs because it has so many work opportunities. Tucson has much more of a local feel, and is a little bit more hipster, funky, nature loving- especially in the downtown and university areas. Both cities are very hot in the summer and they both have a great suburbs that are pretty affordable, and they both have universities and a lot of people who retire here. Both are great cities, it just depends on what you’re looking for. If you pass through Tucson give me a call and I’ll let you know some of the cool things to do around here! I have several other videos on my channel about things to do around Tucson and I put out a Tucson video every week. Thanks for stopping by!
Thanks for sharing!
I've never been to AZ, but it looks beautiful!
Thanks so much! It is! :)
Thanks so much for your comment! I love AZ too!!!
I lived in Tucson a total of 14 years attending UofA. Loved it. Most of my life lived in Phoenix. Retired at age 66 in 2013 and now live in Costa Rica. I rent a 7 bedroom/5 bath house with 4 car garage on 23 acres for $162 a month. Easily live well o? Virtually non existent. Drugs? Not here. Covid rates far below anything in the US. High in the Cloud Forest, Most Americans here live on beaches and those places are as expensive as Hawaii.
Thanks so much for your view and comment! I’m glad you loved Tucson! The UofA is awesome! It sounds like your life in Costa Rica is perfect! Congratulations on your successes and happiness!
Hii dear your video is amazing,really like it,your fan neha
Thank you so much doe the view and comment! Glad you enjoyed the video! Much more to come! Have a wonderful rest of your week, friend!
Thanks for the insight! We are looking to move from our homes in CA and Hawaii and Tucson is one of the cities on our list. I may even go back to school at UofA. We may buy a house, but if we decide to rent for a few years .. is it difficult to rent as dog owners?
I know many people who rent with pets. Long term should be almost no problem, short term will be more challenging based on your budget, how many pets you have, and the time of year you are renting. (You will have more options in the off season/ hotter time of the year). Check out apartments.com for rental info
@@TucsonArizona Thanks for replying. We have 3 small breed Maltese dogs. We will most likely buy a house, actually. Oro Valley looks lovely and it’s in our budget - but my father who lives in Arizona tells me there are water concerns in Arizona desert cities. Now I’m not so sure about Arizona. What do you think of the water situation?
Tucson gets their water from the Central Arizona Project and underground aquifers. Many homeowners use rain harvesting systems for things like plants, and most Tucsonans no longer have grass or plants that require a lot of water. I recommend checking out Tucson City Water website for information about droughts, water recycling and reusing, and conservation efforts. I also have a video coming out about water in Arizona soon… Stay tuned! 😁

I also have a video coming out about water in Arizona soon… Stay tuned! 😁
I’m worried most about the water. Where does the water come from? Is it all fist recirculated toilet water that you drink? Should I plan to drink bottled water?
These are all good questions that I have been asked before and I will probably make a video about Tucson water to clear things up. Most of our water either comes from the Colorado River or from wells. Here’s an article with more info: www.tucsonaz.gov/water/distribution-system. Personally I don’t have a well, so I drink water from the tap, however when we moved into our home we installed a reverse osmosis (RO) system which filters the water a little more, and that’s the water we drink. I can’t remember how much we paid for the RO system but I think it was a few hundred dollars to purchase. I think the water tastes great. Some people drink bottled water here but it’s just a personal preference. I think most are fine with tap water or their personal well water or filtered tap water. Thanks for asking! I hope I was able to answer your question! 😊
Is Tucson growing just as fast as Phoenix?
I don’t think anything could grow as fast as Phoenix... (I think it’s one of the fastest if not the fastest growing city in the US right now). But Tucson suburbs are blowing up, especially Marana and Sahuarita. They are new towns, safe, clean, and with good schools.
Faster
I currently live in San Diego and rent keeps going up each year! My apartment complex started charging $3000 plus for 1BR which is beyond ridiculous!
I wanna move to AZ!
I work with a lot of people moving here from other places. We aren’t the cheapest place in the world to live, but I know that we certainly aren’t the most expensive either 😁 Thanks for checking out the channel!
@@TucsonArizona I’m definitely gonna contact you in the near future!
Great!
How is Tucson in terms of public transpo? I’m applying as an international student
Hi there! Thanks for the view and comment! Tucson’s main public transportation is the Sun Tran bus service, but we also have a street car downtown, and several shuttles and vans. You can check out the schedules at www.suntran.com/
There is a few stray kitties off Broadway and N Beverly at the At Home parking lot that need help if anyone is in the area. They are grey and white. They come out around dusk on the the side of At Home. Had to leave to help out my mom:( I could pay anyone that can prove they feed them
Do you think construction type work is booming in tuczon?
Absolutely yes. There is still a lot of new construction happening all over town, but in addition to that different small businesses in various trades are always hiring. (Roofers, plumbers, electricians, HVAC workers, etc). As a real estate agent it is often hard for me to find someone to help fix one of my client’s homes! 😆 Feel free to contact me directly and I can talk about this in more detail if you would like. My contact information is in the description below the video. Thank you!
@@TucsonArizona thank you. I'm going to go ahead and risk the move from north Carolina and head to tuczon. I got a job offer as a crane operator. Sounds good I'll get ahold of you as soon as I get some 2 weeks of pay stubs and pre approval. Thank you
Perfect thank you so much! I would love to work with you! Let me know if you would like the names of some great local lenders I know here, or if you would like me to set you up on an MLS search in the meantime to get an idea of some of the real estate we have for sale in the city. We will be in touch!
Vail ,corona de tucson,rita ranch.nice areas.
Nice and Creative Videos， This is really my favorite channle.:).
I really glad to see your post and your world was so brilliant. 🌴🌴🌴
excellent and Much appreciated!!🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 from:
Tucson City Pima
Thanks so much for your kind words! I really appreciate them! Let me know if there’s a topic for a video you’d like me to make! Have a wonderful rest of your day! ❤️
I was born in Tucson plan on retiring there!!!!
It’s a great place to be born in; it’s a great place to retire in!!!
Hello new subscriber here
Welcome to the family! Let me know if there are any videos you would like us to make! Thanks for the view, comment, and sub!
Two hours from the border? Maybe if the traffic jams up on I-19 for over an hour. It's 60miles. You're still thinking of Phoenix.
True, I was definitely over-estimating based on bad traffic (which I’ve encountered many times on my drive down the Mexico! 😆). And I guess it depends on where you live in Tucson; if you aren’t close to the freeway it definitely adds time too. Thanks for pointing it out! I’ll update that if I mention the drive to Mexico in future videos! Thanks for the view and comment! Have a great day!
You got me sold on Tucson
I'm retired, looking to leave California, what a surprise. I have great friends in Mariana, nice place, but I'm looking for property to build my own home.
Thanks
Cool! Tucson (and Marana!) are wonderful! Lots of land for sale in and around Marana and other areas outside of Tucson. Feel free to contact me and I’ll set you up on a land search! My contact info is all in the description at the bottom of the video. I have helped several Californians relocate to Tucson recently. I would love to work with you!
@@TucsonArizona thank you 😊
@@TucsonArizona also, the trip to Tucson i hiked and summitted Mt . Lemmon from the Catalina state park trail head. I, love the surrounding areas
I love Mount Lemmon. The camping and hiking there are fantastic. Amazing that we have woods and wilderness just forty five minutes up a mountain from the base of a dry desert
Thanks for the view and comment! If anyone is concerned about flooding and flash floods, they can talk to their real estate agent agent about finding homes in areas that aren’t in standard “flood zones.” Flash floods can be intense but fortunately they don’t last extremely long most of the time. I am hoping for more rain this year than last! From what I understand, there have been droughts across the nation. Water would really help the desert!
I have had 12 different people move here from around the country and different parts of the world because of what they saw in my videos.
That’s cool! How long have you had your channel?
@@TucsonArizona I have been doing youtube for a little over 16 years and have had 8 different Channels over those years. I now only have 2 channels, This 1 and My Mountain Bike Channel Iseekoutthetrails.
Bear down in tuc town
Yep, bear down!!! Did you go to the U of A? Thanks again for the view and comment! 😁
Leaving Kansas 😂 will be in Tucson by the end of this month.
Welcome to Tucson!
@@TucsonArizona thank you, I’ll be on the Rez most days 😂 lots of family to visit. I can’t wait to ride my motorcycle….. any suggestions?
Hey there, I have a lot of recommendations of things to do in Tucson on this channel, and I’m not sure what your interests are, but downtown Tucson has a lot of great restaurants especially on Congress and 4th Avenue… on the west side there’s the desert museum and wildlife museum and San Xavier del bac mission, (even if you don’t visit and go inside of the actual museums, it’s a really pretty drive to get out to those places)… I don’t know if you like hiking at all but saguaro national Park West is right there also. Enjoy! 😎🌵☀️
@@TucsonArizona I’m 37 and just like to ride my motorcycles. 😊
Skateboard…. Etc. very outdoorsy 😊
I’m originally from San Diego
I still think the ride to the desert museum would be fun, and also the ride out to Colossal Cave on the east side of town (Vail). Enjoy!
You said we’re about 2 hours from Mexico. It’s really about 1 hour away
Thanks for the view and comment, yes that was sort of a typo, although I don’t live close to the interstate so from my home it’s always at least an hour and a half drive and I always get stuck in traffic along the way. 😩 So two hours is definitely an over estimate but yes you’re correct it usually takes most people much less time than that. Thanks so much for commenting! I post Tucson videos weekly and as a matter fact I have one coming out this afternoon about the Desert Museum if you’d like to take a look at that one 😊 Have a great day!
i live in brazil

Hello guys where are you from?
Hello, this is a video about our city. Thank you for your view and comment! Much more content to come on this channel!
A couple of negatives is that everywhere you go trash lines the streets. The city doesn't do anything about it. Crime is rampant. Unlike other big cities here in Az, Tucson is in the top 5 in for crime.
Where is the best area to live in Tucson with a young interracial family?
Hi there, people with families often want to live near areas with parks and good schools and traditionally lower crime. You can visit www.tucsonaz.gov/parks/ to find a list of nice city parks, and niche.com or greatschools.org for schools, or neighborhoodscout.com/az/Tucson/crime. Contact me directly if you have additional questions about the city!
The good news is that it’s got a small town mentality.
The bad news is that it’s got a small town mentality.
In many ways, yes. Thanks for visiting the channel!
Is Tucson safe?
Hey there! I actually have a video about crime statistics in Tucson so feel free to check that out. Certain areas are traditionally lower crime than other areas. Feel free to check out the website neighborhoodscout.com to view crime statistics and crime maps for different areas, or you can contact me personally and talk to me about specific neighborhoods you might be interested in. Thanks for the view and comment!
How much do you make as a real estate?
Right now it’s a big sellers market here in Tucson. It’s a good time to have a lot of listings as a real estate agent
@@TucsonArizona what about as an MLO?
I’m actually not sure what they make. I know the busy loan officers do very well. But the nice thing for them is that they make money from refinances as well as helping borrowers purchase properties, so as long as interest rates stay low, they keep busy. Of course real estate agents help buyers who are financing, buyers paying cash, and sellers. So they have many different types of clients as well, and therefore many earning opportunities.
Are there 55+ communities?
Absolutely! We have several, all over the city! We also have many in our suburbs! Feel free to contact me personally and I’ll tell you more, or I’ll set you up on a home search for homes in 55+ neighborhoods so you can see what’s available.
Is booming now .
Definitely! 😊
50th in education
Sad but true. I didn’t include the state ranking (partially because we do have some really great schools and districts in Tucson). And a lot of people moving here from other states are retired and don’t have kids that would be going to our schools. I did want people to be aware that they need to shop around for schools here, since they can be hit and miss. Thanks again for your view and comment! You know your Tucson/Arizona stuff!
get me out of england uk please !!!
Thanks for your view and comment! I would love to visit England someday! I have never been! I miss traveling. Hope to start again when travel restrictions are lifted. Have a great day!
@@TucsonArizona honestly England sucks.weather is poor to say the least. lol have a good day
@@NHEFF09 Oh no so sorry to hear that! I still hear it is beautiful...and I love history and architecture so I would love to see some historical buildings and museums!
@@TucsonArizona and castles dont forget
Definitely!
Hello, can you tell us where the “bad” areas of the city are? Thanks
Hey there! I typically don’t advise people of specific areas to live in without knowing more about what they are looking for in a location, because everyone is looking for something different as far as schools, crime level, etc. I have a video with crime statistics coming out soon, but if you want to contact me to tell me more about your situation I would love to speak with you! All my contact information is in the description of the video. I look forward to speaking with you!
The South Side
How about diversity in the City of Tucson
I could make a video about something like that. We have many people in Tucson from all different places: many people move here for our university, many people retire here from other places, and of course many people move here from Mexico for work or school or family… so we have a lot of people in Tucson from other places, for sure. Thanks for checking out the channel!
@@TucsonArizona ok thank you that would be great I live in the Midwest been to Arizona a couple times Phoenix but I’m considering moving to Tucson I come from a small city so I just wanna know about the area diversity being an African American woman thank you for the videos
Cons, home to the university of Arizona football team, hub for drugs border 64 miles from tucson
U forgot wildfires
True, especially in the past year, although coincidentally I work with a lot of buyers who are moving here from other places in the country to get away from their wildfires which they feel are much closer than Tucson wildfires. (California was really bad this year, and I lived in Montana for a couple years and their wildfires can be really intense too). I’ll find a way to work wildfires into an upcoming Tucson video the next time I film a script...thanks for mentioning!
You are not very thorough in your con comments. For example, the Tucson metro area covers about 800 square miles, yet the area has no freeway or expressway system to facilitate the movement of traffic through the area (Interstate 10 doesn't count since all it does is skirt the periphery of the city). And because of untimed traffic signals and aruguably the country's second worst drivers ( only Boston drivers are worse) driving so slowly, it's a real grind driving around the area. In addition to that is the fact that major east west thoroughfares such as Grant Road are in such abysmal condition that driving on Grant, for example, makes you feel that your car is going to blow a tire at any time. Then, of course, there is the amount of time it takes Tucson to complete any road improvement project. Remember when all entrances and exits for Tucson's downtown were closed for three years (yes, that's right THREE YEARS) while construction was occurring on Interstate 10 or the construction mess that is currently going occurring on Broadway just east of downtown. Bottom line, Tucson has horrific traffic problems that won't see improvement any time soon (if ever).
In addition, your comments about Tucson being a dry heat are not totally accurate. Why don't you mention Tucson's dirty little secret that during the July and August monsoon season the weather can get very humid (the humidity is there even when the rains don't come).
My final comment about a Tucson con is regards the City and County's leadership. There seems to be an obsession with keeping Tucson the "Old Pueblo". This is the thinking that if one wishes hard enough that despite one million area residents that why don't we all pretend we are a small town. That way, the area's leaders can do everything they can to keep Tucson the same even though lots needs to be done to improve the area. It takes more than pretty sunsets to make an area truly livable.
Its not called monsoon ! We prefer none-soon !
😂😂😂 Thanks for the view and comment! Hope you come back soon for more Tucson videos!
I live in Tucson over a 1.5 years now ! Love it here 🌞
I love it here too! It’s just big (and just small) enough, and it’s the perfect amount of hip/funky for me! Plus-gotta love those mountains!!! If you ever need a real estate agent to help you buy or sell a house, I’d love to help you out! 😆
Haha I so love the way you squeezed that last comment in like swim wear 😄..if you ever need some native artifacts for homes ! Let me know hehe 🤪
Ok! I will! 😊 Thanks again so much for your view and comments! I greatly appreciate it!
Tucson is nothing more than a snake pit! Severe heat for approx. 9 months! I unfortunately lived there for 18 years, in the foothills. The only place to live is in Scottsdale which is even hotter.
Tucson's only 45 minutes away from the Mexican US border. And the school suck here. But other than that Tucson is amazing.
I agree! Thank you for your view and comment! Much more Tucson content to come!
Moved to Tucson about 6 months ago. Still not loving it.
So sorry to hear that. Hopefully things will get better now that it’s starting to cool down!
I am looking for a land with a mobile house 🏡
Great! We have plenty here! Feel free to call, text, or email me (all my contact information is in the description below each video) and I will set you up on a home search. I will also help you find a local mortgage lender if you need that too! Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you! ❤️
Tucson's a terrible place to live especially if you're from California you guys should move to Texas and keep going lol my rent used to be $475 a month now all The Californians moved here now my rent is 1300.00 a month.
Tucson is only dangerous because of South Tucson lol
Right?!?! LOL! I agree!!! Thanks for the comment and view! Much more Tucson videos to come! Please stay tuned for more!
@@TucsonArizona I’m born and raised and currently still living in the northeast but my best friend lives in Marana. I’m looking to move out there in the Casa Adobe or Catalina Foothills area apartments to stay in the nicer neighborhoods. From what I’ve read and been told, just gotta stay north/west of the college and I’ll be okay lol
I like anywhere north side (Marana, oro valley, foothills, northeast), and many areas throughout the rest of the city. The closer you get to midtown/university, the more expensive the areas. If you or your friends ever need a real estate agent, I’d love to help them out! 😁
“Personal freedoms” and the California comment turned me off.
List be like... You wont like Tucson if you breath air. This is just a long ad. Reality is, you wont like Tucson if you dont like homeless drug addicts, pushy salespeople, terrible drivers. I should make my own realistic list
To racist snd advocated voter suppression
Tucson absolutely sucks. I don’t understand why people would move there. Phoenix is better!! Come here instead!!
One of the highest school shooter rates Is in Phoenix
To sweeten the deal Arizona has one of the highest income tax rates, low paying jobs, $270 electricity bills. Don't forget Arizona is ranked 40th in crime and 47th in education. I've lived in Tucson Arizona for 21 years and it's absolutely terrible here. If you want a nice city in AZ and are willing to pay a little more than go to Flagstaff.
CONS: high crime, lots of druggie bums, crap roads, uninsured drivers everywhere, bad infrastructure, horrible traffic from excessive surface streets only, lack of well paying jobs, no trees, dry air nearly yearlong, incompetent government, commercial buisness spread out too far.
PROS: The outskirts of the city can be nice.
