Review of Tucson, Arizona


Living in Tucson, Arizona
Star Rating - 9/24/2009
We have been here over 12 years. We do not enjoy how this city allows it to become
an unsightly place to live overall. We do enjoy, as we know other people do, the fact that we each live within our own little oasis, and do not go out to enjoy many of the great things Tucson has to offer due to our ages, and physical condition. Therefor we have come to the conclusion that Tucson is fine for younger people to enjoy, i.e., the bicycle facilities, the university, the outdoor facilities, the museums, and of course the weather. We have an old saying which is very true here. " We can tell it's summer when we get hot water out of both faucets". That of course is true due to the fact that most homes are ranch style, or almost all do not have a basement to accomodate plumbing which is always installed in the attic.

Is there ANY place in AZ or NM that ISN'T blazing hot in the Summer and Desert-Freezing overnight? (also: not crime-ridden, too expensive or over-crowded with the pretentious hoity-toity, too boring, etc., etc.)
