Four nice months
The bottom line is that Tucson has about 4 months of pretty nice weather, i.e. the winter months. And while it's sunny almost year round, it's entirely too hot the remaining 6 to 8 months. Of course this is to be expected as it is, for goodness sake, the desert. Moreover, Tucson tends to have fewer nice areas of town compared to not so nice areas. What I mean here is from an esthetic and crime standpoint, the further NW and NE areas are nice, but central and south Tucson is pretty rough. While home price are fairly cheap these days, AZ's pay scale is comparatively lower that some other parts of the country. There's an expression. "Arizona is for people you can't make it in California." In all fairness it hard for any state to compete with the likes of California when it comes to such things like weather, beaches, mountains and so on. Oh! But again. Tucson does have about 4 pleasant months out of the year.
