Sierra Vista, AZ
Couldn't wait to leave -
10/18/2012I live in Sierra Vista for 13 months and after 6 months started looking for ways to get out. While a lot of post on SV concern taxes, I didn't find them to be outrages. What I hated about Sierra Vista was the lack of activities for single people in their mid-50's. If your single or not an active duty Sierra Vista offers nothing. Almost all restaurants are national chains that are bland in taste and atmosphere. Starting Labor Day prices take a huge jump do to the "Snowbirds" that winterize in the area. Traffic becomes bad for the size and you might as well plan for long lines everywhere you go.
Forget about local medical care, you will have to go to Tuscon for anything more serious than a hang nail. Locals tell you to stay away from the local hospital.
I was told when I move there I would either love or hate Sierra Vista and as I stated I couldn't wait to leave.
