Arizona, AZ
It is what it is -
1/23/2013If you're considering living in Phoenix, please know that it is in the desert and it IS HOT nine months out of the year. No getting around that. On the other side of the coin, the winters are mild and comfortable.
If you are into old money and culture, Arizona should not be your first choice, but if you love outdoor and water activities, and informal fun, you may want to check it out.
If you have strong political opinions, do your homework. Our politicians do too.
Arizona borders Mexico and the border is a long one. This creates unique issues here and should be considered.
If you have school aged children, you should know that our education system here is below par.
Although there is a high unemployment rate here, I see plenty of opportunities for people who have the drive to pursue them.
The people here are PEOPLE. Just like people everywhere. Since the bulk of the population here is not indigenous, there is a wide variety of religious faiths, political viewpoints, languages and opinions. Whatever yours may be, you can be sure you can find like-minded people in Arizona.
