Lookin' for a small town vibe in a big city? Tucson just might be your cup of tea if you want to live somewhere with a strong sense of community. Tucson has an organization called Ben's Bells that makes bells and hangs them up around town to remind people to be kind to one another. These bells symbolize how special Tucson is – a beautiful desert town that values the importance of compassion and acts of kindness. It's similar to Portland with its artsy, easy-living vibe, but of course there's a little less rain.
One of the best things about Tucson is that it's a valley surrounded by breathtaking mountains on all sides, so no matter where you live, you're no more than a half an hour drive from a spectacular hike in Sabino Canyon, Gates Pass, or Saguaro National Park.The blazing Tucson sun is almost always shining, with slightly cooler temperatures than Phoenix. Whether you're a hiker, a biker, a golfer, or horseback rider, you can do it all under the warmest of rays here in the Sonoran Desert – even the average winter temperature is 70 degrees!
Fourth Avenue has a vibe truly unique to Arizona with its hipster restaurants and shopping – Desert Vintage is a must for vintage clothing lovers. Be sure to check out Brooklyn Pizza for the best garlic knots around and Hippie Gypsy if you're in need of a Bob Marley poster for your new apartment. Due to close proximity to the border, the Mexican food in Tucson is authentic and delicious. Grab a four dollar burrito at Nico's Taco Shop or some carne asada tacos at Cafe Poca Cosa. If you like Whole Foods, you'll love The Food Conspiracy Co-Op. The University of Arizona campus (Go Wildcats!) is also located close to downtown, fueling the energy of an incredibly diverse city with a relatively low cost of living. Call the folks and tell them you're good and gone, and welcome home to terrific Tucson. Don't forget to stop by Eeegee's for a classic Tucson shaved ice miracle.
