Don't come here thinking it's New York City or L.A

My wife and I lived here from 1991 to 1997, when we moved for employment reasons to Phoenix. I have since retired, and we moved back this past July. We love it here!
Here are the facts about Lake Havasu. It is a small, (53,000 pop.) desert town. It is conservative and Republican. Yeah, we're those people who cling to our religion and our guns. If you don't like that, too bad. Go elsewhere.
It is very HOT here in the Summer. If you don't like hot weather, don't come here. If you're a flaming liberal Democrat, don't come here. If you don't like the desert, or the barren landscape it provides, don't come here. We're not built around the entertainment industry. So if you want "worldly culture", and to be entertained every 15 minutes, don't come here.
If you want a nice peaceful place, that has one of the best lakes in the country, good fishing, along with a relaxed lifestyle to go along with it, then come here and you will be happy. (We also have a fantastic, very friendly gun club in town).
But for God's sake, at least be honest with yourself. No town of 50,000 people is going to be a mecca for higher education, high paying jobs, along with culture and entertainment. If you want that, do yourselves and us a big favor, and move to the big city. You, and we, will all be happier.
