I would think a transition from Annapolis and the Chesapeake Bay and crabs to Tucson Arizona would be difficult. No offense, but having a picture of Kari Lake could be real turn off in a blue city.

      @@lifestyleintucsonarizona Mt. Lemmon is fantastic and short drive from Tucson. Many don't realize you can ski there. The only thing I like about Phoenix is its somewhat close proximity to Arcosanti, only an hour away. One of those places I visit whenever I'm in Phoenix on business. I also love the Frank LLoyd Wright's Taliesin West. The 60 minute tour is wonderful. The Norman Lykes house designed by Wright is now an Airbnb and the best experience I've ever had in an Airbnb. I miss Tucson, but it really is not the best place to raise children. Sure it has incredible natural beauty, but I've raised two families, one in Tucson and one where I live now, in the forest near a lake. I'll take the four distinct seasons and the lake in a remote college town with practically zero crime any day of the week. Yes, such places still exist. Thanks for your channel!

      As with all cities, this is very subjective to area. And much like all cities, in some areas you will find bad roads, bad drivers, transients and crime. This doesn’t represent the whole of Tucson and Surrounding areas.

    Tucson Arizona is out of water. People are building houses outside the city limits and selling to out of state 😅buyers. A lot of these houses don’t have enough water to last 10 years.

      I'm curious where you found the info showing that Tucson AZ is out of water and that a lot of houses don't have enough water to last 10 years??
      I've worked in RE in Southern AZ for over 15 years, been party to thousands of RE transaction and am pretty networked in the space. I have never encountered a property in Tucson or the greater Tucson area that didn't have adequate water supply. Never even heard of that being a reality for a homeowner in the Tucson area.

    • @lifestyleintucsonarizona
      @lifestyleintucsonarizona  3 місяці тому +1

      Generally homes in the US are larger in sqft compared to homes in tucson. The biggest factor is probably the age of most of the homes in Tucson. Much of the homes in Tucson are much older. They used to build much more modest sized homes.
      That being said, many of the homes built in the last 15-20 years in Tucson are predominantly larger between 2,200 - 3,000 sqft.
