    My aunt came to Tucson to visit us. We took her to Leo's Mexican Food, one of the best places in Tucson for Sonoran food. She spent the entire time telling us that "This isn't real Mexican food" because it was not like the Tex-Mex food she was used to. We told her that the food in her area is Texan food influenced by the food of the state of Chihuahua, not the food from Sonora and that it is just different. Both are "real" Mexican (well, Tex-Mex is kinda Mexican) and that what we were eating was authentic Sonoran food. Chimichangas are Tucson food though. They were first made here when a chef in one of our finer eateries dropped a burrito in the fryer then discovered he liked it, and thus a star was born. It can be enjoyed either plain or "enchilada style" with enchilada sauce, sour cream and topped with cheese. Either way, it's dynomite.

    Hello Kimberly! After TWENTY YEARS of trying to convince my husband to visit Tucson, he finally agreed last November. I hadn't been there since 1979, but I always remembered how beautiful it was. He kept insisting that he had NO desire to visit there. Well, after being there for less than a week, he's now talking about us MOVING there!! LOL! Watching your videos is encouraging him even more. Can you suggest some decent neighborhoods that are walkable/bike able to grocery stores? Gated communities are nice, but I enjoy being able to walk into town, and walk to shops when it's nice outside. Thank you!

    • @TucsonArizona
      @TucsonArizona  3 года назад +1

      Hi there! What a cool story! Tucson is pretty big and spread out, so I’d have to talk to you personally to find out what area of town you prefer because depending on if you want the actual city or a suburb, my answer about different neighborhoods would be different… But in the city I would say anywhere that you live either close to downtown or close to the university, you will be walking or biking distance from shopping and restaurants and things to do, but I also like the neighborhoods off of Fort Lowell/camp Lowell, (A little bit more Midtown), River road, (which is a little bit more crowded), or sunrise/skyline, (Northside). I feel like if you lived in a neighborhood near one of those roads, you would be pretty close to everything from shopping, restaurants, coffee shops, small businesses, etc. I always encourage people to check out the website neighborhoodscout.com for crime statistics, so check out that website to give you an idea for the neighborhoods and which ones are traditionally lower crime. Feel free to reach out to me anytime with more specific questions about the city and neighborhoods! Thanks so much for your view and comment! ❤️

    I wish I found your videos sooner! I just relocated to Tucson from NJ a few weeks ago, sight unseen, barring some research I did when I decided to move. I immediately fell in love. I came partially for work, and to be closer to my bf, but mainly for a more laid back way of life, and sunshine to ease my chronic pain. I'm moving to the Catalina Foothills next week, and can't wait. I'm currently staying downtown, which is okay during the daytime, but there are a few sketchy people in these parts. I expected it, especially having spent time in downtown LA. The Foothills area is beautiful. The people I've met have been wonderful, and helpful. I'm by no means a native Tucsonan, but this place feels like home already. I do plan on buying property within the next year, so I will absolutely be giving you a call. THANK YOU for these videos. I can't tell you how helpful they have been. It seems I'm adapting to this new and strange environment wonderfully.

    Kimberly, great job. Having relocated here about 3 years ago and enjoying it (love the outdoors) our biggest adjustment was the food. While Tucson does have some great foodie places, I was disappointed on the spatially diversity of these food joints. To get great , diverse, foods you need to be in downtown Tucson, get outside downtown and food joints are petty ..meah.. was just a change for our other locations in the US where great food joints were a lot more dispersed thorough the town/city.
    Also, our big adjustment was Farmer’s markets, veggie stands. Tucson struggle for diverse local farmers products getting to us locals. Back East was an abundance of farmers stands, famers market. Here in Tucson very limited. So, a bit of a struggle.

    Only downsides I've seen so far really are that pizza on the west coast/southwest basically sucks - if you're from NY or CT, you'll be disappointed. I've found some ok places in AZ and CA, but nothing that really compares to back east. Also, it's weird that it gets dark by 8 p.m. in the summer (7:46 p.m. right now on August 12, and it's dark).

    • @TucsonArizona
      @TucsonArizona  3 года назад +1

      Tucson has been voted a highly bike-friendly city in terms of biking paths, mountain biking, and because of “The Loop,” which is a 135+ bike and pedestrian paved path that takes you all over the city. As far as biking around to get from place to place (as a form of transportation), it just depends on how close you live to all the things you like to do and see and the place you work. Summers are hot here so if you live too far, you may not enjoy the commute in the summer. However I know people who bike everywhere and are ok with it.

      Ha ha, we do get some rain especially in the summers, we get monsoon storms from time to time and it’s usually enough to water our desert plants and keep them happy and healthy for most of the year… We get some humidity after those monsoons roll in… But for the most part we’re pretty dry year-round. Thanks for checking out the channel! 😁☀️☀️🌵

    I can't wait to visit there. I'm sick of all this Pacific Nortwest greenery. We've got every single shade of green known to man. I need me some good desert atmosphere

      Greenery is great too! But I also like the desert. It’s all beautiful to me 🥰

    This Channel's funny as hell they're just showing you the nice parts of Tucson Avid showing you how bad it is here if if you try to work for a living you're not going to make that much money here the only way as good as if you actually own a business here you do well if you work here you struggle

    I loved your downtown Tuscon goodwill when we went there last! I forget what area it was but there was a costume shop, a pagan shop, thrift stores and I don't remember what else but the art down there was fantastic and the stores were neat and clean, workers were friendly.

    I love how the housing that you showed was actually not even Tucson but actually was Oro valley I wish you showed the true Tucson
    Do not come to Tucson if you don't want people shooting up drugs at most every street corner.why didn't you show these people Alvernon and Grant or first and Ft Lowell??? I love how you showed our cultural food bit didn't show the areas in wich these establishment are hahaha trust me Tucson is not what this video has shown you but she's obviously trying to sale you a home... that being said Oro valley is not Tucson and yes its beautiful there but like I said don't venture to far down the hill with out a gun...

      I live in Tucson not oro valley and there are many delicious cultural food and beautiful homes.. I've lived and visited many other cities and always liked the layback feeling in Tucson .Many cities have problems with drugs and guns, much more so than Tucson. If you can make it through the unbearably hot however beautiful Rainy monsoon, the winter's are beautiful and plenty of outdoor activities.

    • @TucsonArizona

      Ellen, thank you so much for your view and kind comment! It’s funny because there are a few clips on this video that were taken from Oro Valley but the bulk of them were taken from places all over the city, from Lakeside park, to Reid Park, to Mount Lemmon, to various places on The Loop, to Sahuarita Lake, etc. Tucson is huge and it is very spread out and different areas offer different things, both good and bad. I completely agree with you: I have been to some places that were extremely dangerous and had a ton of drug problems, both big cities and small towns, and most were much more expensive to visit or live in than Tucson is. Even though Tucson isn’t perfect, I like the dry heat and the desert’s beauty. I love the food and mix of cultures here, and all the arts and outdoor activities we can have almost year round. Thanks again for the view and have a great day!
