Moved to Arizona about six years ago and I absolutely love it. There is so much to do. The outdoors are absolutely amazing. If you want a healthy, active lifestyle for a reasonable cost, this is an amazing place. Every morning when I walk before work, I look up at the mountains, and I am just in awe. AZ is great.
@@real_airgot I lived in Indy for awhile. The change is good. I would say we are definitely not the south down here. This is the west, and there is a western, laid back vibe. There isn't the baggage that the south has. Arizona is the ultimate you do you place. Nobody really gets in your business here. It's not the Bible belt. It's very open minded. People here like to have a good time. I just went to the beach in Mexico last weekend. Fun time. Of course, Arizona is vastly different wherever you live. Tucson is totally different from Phoenix. I live in the southeast corner of the state which is different still. Flagstaff is different from the bigger cities. Most people move to Phoenix which is where a lot of the jobs are. The Phoenix area is actually many different towns. You can find one that fits your perspectives pretty easily. It's hot there in the summer, but winters are beautiful. Tucson is funky, artsy and very multi-cultural. It's a college town. It's really cool. Where I live close to the border, there is a lot of cross cultural arts stuff going on. It's pretty neat. Come on down. You'll like it.
@@toddinde great comment thanks for sharing. Curious, where do you live now? Just curious why you chose the south East portion of the state in contrast to all the other areas that get a lot of attention
And a governor who cheated her way to a gubernatorial office. A state that is becoming rapidly corrupted by demonicrat Kalifornicators infesting this state bot to mention illegal cartel thugs.
I lived in Tucson for about 9 months in late 70's... I still crave the smell of the desert are especially before it rains during the monsoon season I wish I would have lived my life differently because I would buy a house in Arizona in a New York Minute. Unfortunately I had family here in New England I didn't think about the future when they would all die and I'd be left here alone shoveling snow at 67 years of age
@@GolerGulch I would if I knew I could get affordable housing...I love Tucson and Arizonans as the most unpretentious people I have ever met and I have been in almost all of the lower 48 States
At 70 I'm finally going to join my BEST FRIEND,and move to TUCSON,she left Michigan,in 2012...I to am tired of cutting grass,and shoveling SNOW,and the COLD,increases my pain...I'M COMING ZONA..saving like never before!!!
I used to live in St. George Utah and it’s somewhat like Arizona. I have lived in Colorado since 2010 and want to get back to the desert environment that I knew and loved. My wife and I are planning to move to Arizona. As I get older I’m finding that I would rather take the heat, than the harshness of the cold anymore. If I want to get out of the heat for a little while, I would just make a trip to Payson or Prescott, and I’ve seen Mt. Humphreys from a distance and it was breathtaking and inviting. Surprise Az, is our aim. I love going through Sedona Valley and the scent of rain which, is the chaparral plant, there’s nothing better. It was that way after a gentle rain in Ivins Ut. And it would be that way it the vast desert land in Arizona as well. I think from now on, I would rather shovel sunshine than the snow any day. Yes Colorado is beautiful, but it’s changed so much. Kudos to the Arizonians and the intensity of the desert life and it’s beauty. I like also traveling through Jacob Lake and coming down through the Vermilion cliffs. I was in Scottsdale at a conference once and it was really neat.
I live in Arizona city and it floods and we get height winds. People are not friendly us Arizona at all! There’s a few but not not many at all! I’m from mn and then people and myself are way more friendly than Arizona people!
I was born in Arizona as was my siblings both of my parents one grandfather and my children I just want to tell you some of the things that I loved as a child growing up in Phoenix. Going barefoot and jumping grass lawns Wallace and ladmo Our cabin near payson Our ranch near happy jack Fishing in Big Lake Dad making homemade icecream for the neighborhood. Can't forget legend city. And big surf Loved the book by martha summerhays. vanished Az.. talking about the life and all the camps.. as well as the apaches. They mention their travel over what they call stonemans lake. Thanks
I grew up in Sedona. I'd love to move back there but I'm not a millionaire and don't know how to wait tables. I suppose I could try to open the 10,000th shop selling magic crystals.
Lol. I lived in Showlow, Flagstaff and Pinetop Lakeside. I never felt like I needed to be a millionair to exist there. Matter of fact I'm about to move my family there in 6 months or so.
Live in the Puget Sound in Summer, but always begin to look forward to returning home to AZ in November. The contrast between the Pacific NW and AZ is the best life for me and six months in each I attribute to my health and mental health.
I live in Lake Havasu.. ( no mention). but it's the playground of Az. 35 mile lake with 200 mph. boats and events going on all the time! It's a place for do-ers. no crime and not even grafitti.. almost everyone will sit and talk about any thing.. likely to se a sign on a business that reads ' closed for daughters baseball game, back at 4:00'.. . life is more important here than business.
I LOVE Arizona!! It’s My “Happy Place” to Visit for Months Every Year. (I Hate it when I have to Leave too 😢) Especially coming from an Ugly Crapy Criminal State like Illinois Is!! See You Soon ARIZONA!! ❤️❤️🥰🏜️🌵🌴❤️❤️
Please don't listen to negative comments, Arizona is a good place to live.. and it depends on the cities because of the hot weather..good morning and happy new year
Thanks so much for the information! I'll be moving to Arizona within the next one or two years, so I'm looking for this kind of content. I'd like to see a video on secure places outside of the cities to live with pets (maybe even be able to keep three or four chickens). Gated or non-gated communities, tiny house parks, decent or nice trailer parks. Also the one you mentioned are not so secure. Which are the ones not secure?
Arizona is a beautiful place I absolutely love Southern California, but it’s just to expensive. I’m proud to call Arizona my home the great state 48 and damn proud of it.
There are wild Buffalo on the North rim of the Grand Canyon. They had a hunting season for them a few years ago as there were too many of them. I have seen them. There are California condors and big horn sheep here as well. I have seen the condors and photographed them. One of the natural disasters here are Killer Bees. People get killed as do dogs and horses. The state is not as buggy like other states as it's so dry. I see very few mosquitos where I live. Another benefit of living here is that it is so dry that when your dog poops in your yard, you can leave it one day and it will turn in to a brick that is much easier to pick up.
Nice video and great information about Arizona, I’m planning for MS in Arizona Uni, I’m from India lived in NYC decades ago, Can’t wait to visit Arizona next year
All true for AZ. You can reach winter snow & skiing on Mt Lemmon 45 mins from Tucson--where summer heat is always lower than in Phoenix. Plus, you adapt to heat in this multi-cultural state.
You didn't mention Mt Lemmon...it's over 9000 ft and there is a ski resort ( Ski Valley, the most Southern one in the country), so yah, if you want to get snow in the Southern part, you can get it there too! 😊
Renting has gotten really expensive in the cities. Home prices have risen, but that's everywhere. There are some fires, but I have never seen mudslides and floods.
I love these videos! We moved from MN to AZ 11 years ago and we have yet to discover all the cool places we can go to right here in this state. Watching your videos gives me the info I need to do a State- staycation. For example, I just learned from this video, about the Reptilian Preserve in Gilbert. That’s now on my calendar for a day trip. Tucson & Tempe are coming up as well- thanks to you and your videos. ❤
After 38 years in electrical engineering I’m going the for hire contractor route. Mixed signal analog/digital component level design from requirements list to finished PCBs? I can do that in my sleep. I can also review existing schematics and save the customer a board spin and months of lost time, identifying design errors before production starts. I did this every day at the 9 to 5 gig. So I’m taking the early retirement from my employer, selling my paid off home in Plano TX, and looking to move west. Really looking at….Kingman. Why? LA is a day trip. LV is about like driving Plano to Fort Worth. And places to set up old film cameras in the middle of the night, pointed at ruins on Route66 are right under my nose. Kingman also splits the difference between July heat stroke in the CO River valley and minus 5 in FLG in January. So. Yeah. Not everyone’s first choice but for someone looking to live that stretch from 55 to “engineer has assumed room temperature”? Kingman ain’t a bad place to land🤠
I love it out here in Arizona I am not from here I moved out here from back east because of all that snow blizzard really really cold weather ice lots of ice beautiful state wide open space I do like the Heat the weather is great to me I can go on and on about how much I love it out here in Arizona
Lots of people live off the grid in northern Arizona. They also live without a well. They also live without a septic tank. It goes without saying they live without electricity.
@@phoebehill953 I know what u r saying. My apt got to expensive & I left to live in my automobile after all the prices kept going higher & higher. It's not easy but I manage. I am saving $ witch I was not able b4. I'm interested in places that I can live off grid. 😉
Dogs and I always hike - and never run out of places to go. Just have to keep an eye on rattlesnakes; two of mine have been bitten and it comes with a hefty vet bill.
I moved to AZ from San Diego, CA 3 years ago. Initially, I absolutely adored it; however, I had been a hiker, biker, and walker all my life. I was tall, thin and modelesque -- Super Model. When the summer came, it was unbearably hot, and I just could not exercise outdoor. The first year, I gained 10 pounds. This summer, it was consistently 110 degrees for two months straight -- with temperatures as high as 120 degrees. Scientists predict that in fifty years, AZ will be uninhabitable because of the heat. I moved here to buy a home, but I am now looking elsewhere. If you can't stand the heat, get out of AZ!
@@joshlovsbball Thank you. We are planning to move back to Alpharetta, GA. Also, when they opened the floodgates in AZ two weeks ago, tens of thousands of illegal migrants invaded the state. Each year, the crime rate soars, illegal immigration is up 200%, rents are up 26%, home prices and homelessness are sky high, and it is bloody scorching hot. AZ was an ideal state, but in the short period of time since I have been here, it has changed drastically. Happy Day!
Im from San Diego but have been living in Florida for an along time. I'll retire from the military next year and want to move back west for that where I fit in unlike in the south. But everyone knows im not moving back to California. Arizona just might be the spot. Close to family but outside the crazy zone
I grew up in Tucson. I would move back to the area in a heartbeat. However, Arizona is known synonymously as either the Copper State or the Grand Canyon State. Florida is the Sunshine State.
Why is that I hear of ppl talk of A Million Dollars home like it’s just so easy to get and obtain. A Million Dollars is still off limits to 93% of Americans. But I hear the term a Million Dollar home is blah blah blah. Like it’s a $50,000 home. Lol
Philadelphia PA is so expensive and most of the homes are row house which you have to share a wall or two with your neighbors it’s not worth it. Arizona here I come🎉 I have family that has been in AZ for over 17 years so that’s says a lot 😂🎉
Where, outside of the Arctic Circle, are people snowed in for "6 to 8" months? In Boston, we have small amounts of snow, some years with none, occasionally big storm, but never "snowed in."
Love your videos bud, and my research(6 mom.) I found AZ housing is expensive to my budget compared to many other states that has many 200K houses, considering its Mostly a desert with 120 summer heat, and no water soon, of course, if you compare it with Communistfornia, is not fair lol.. but hey, I like AZ, hates that 93 hywy from Vegas to Phoenix, yikes the bumps all over, love the scenery tho.. stay safe.
We used to be the best state ………… now the true locals (lived in Tucson my entire life) can’t afford to buy anything due to the surge from California and other states, our rent has damn near doubled and I’ve been trying to buy a home for my young family for over a year and half I have been beat out by cash offers more then I can count and our pay is not increasing to Match the cost of living here. What was 200k 5 years ago is half a million now and good luck trying to beat the cash offers….
When all you people in the hot cities go to cool off in the summertime you create bumper to bumper traffic every weekend in all of the small cool towns through out the state. Been there for 40 years, I know all about it.
@@LivinginArizona I think they are still investigating if there was a touchdown. There are several videos and images of the clouds but no obvious touchdown shown except in the radar images that do show possible touchdown north of Havasu.
If you don’t live at a high elevation or can afford a summer home in a high elevation, There is no upside to living in Arizona. The valleys are hell on earth six months out of the year.

Arizona is super underrated. It's Probably a top 8 state in the country as far as natural beauty, weather, and things to do/see.
Overrated
Ok ok, im convinced...im going in! lol
Check out Grand Canyon, Bisbee, Sedona, Flagstaff, and Prescott. They’re some of my favorites.
And a governor who cheated her way to a gubernatorial office.

Great job on your videos Jeff. I don't know how anyone could not love Arizona, wonderful state.
I’m thinking of moving back to Phoenix or Prescott, I prefers Prescott but finding job first is more difficult.
You want to escape the heat? You can drive to Mount Lemon or the Huachucas,etc. . Not just north

Why is that I hear of ppl talk of A Million Dollars home like it’s just so easy to get and obtain. A Million Dollars is still off limits to 93% of Americans. But I hear the term a Million Dollar home is blah blah blah. Like it’s a $50,000 home. Lol
I think 350,000 for a reasonably nice home in Arizona at the moment
Hey I'm in Florida now 😆 but I plan to be an Arizona resident soon
We don't need anymore people moving here. We already have to deal with all the snowbirds. Definitely don't have enough water for more people.
And all the illegals crossing the border!👿
Agree & those old snowbird people are freaking annoying ugh!!!
@@jess97724You better cater to them they support your retail Economy.
Philadelphia PA is so expensive and most of the homes are row house which you have to share a wall or two with your neighbors it’s not worth it. Arizona here I come🎉 I have family that has been in AZ for over 17 years so that’s says a lot 😂🎉
I welcome you to Arizona.. good morning and happy new year 🎉🎉
I was watching a video about. Arizona ,too many taxes he mention luxury taxes. Is beautiful I love to see it
Do you live in Arizona?
I wasn't born in Arizona but I got here as soon as I could.
Great video 😊
I’ll be moving out there this fall if everything goes as planned
That's awesome!!! Happy for you!!
You’ll make it!
my family and I are moving to Arizona in September/October. I’m really excited but i’ve been hearing a lot of mixed things
Arizona is a nice place...and it depends city you are moving to in AZ, good morning and happy new year 🎉🎉🎉

Little snow unlike Montana
I grew up in Maryvale and I miss Arizona.
So you are suggesting from June to October I drive from Phoenix to Flagstaff each evening to cool off?
Where, outside of the Arctic Circle, are people snowed in for "6 to 8" months? In Boston, we have small amounts of snow, some years with none, occasionally big storm, but never "snowed in."
Solid. Thanks
Love your videos bud, and my research(6 mom.) I found AZ housing is expensive to my budget compared to many other states that has many 200K houses, considering its Mostly a desert with 120 summer heat, and no water soon, of course, if you compare it with Communistfornia, is not fair lol.. but hey, I like AZ, hates that 93 hywy from Vegas to Phoenix, yikes the bumps all over, love the scenery tho.. stay safe.
We used to be the best state ………… now the true locals (lived in Tucson my entire life) can’t afford to buy anything due to the surge from California and other states, our rent has damn near doubled and I’ve been trying to buy a home for my young family for over a year and half I have been beat out by cash offers more then I can count and our pay is not increasing to Match the cost of living here. What was 200k 5 years ago is half a million now and good luck trying to beat the cash offers….
Lol your comment about working from home, I live in Minneapolis and work from 🥶😂😂
Jeff! Ya better come visit where i work in Cave Creek man!
And where is that?
Arizona is probably the best place to retire. It’s also my home state!
When all you people in the hot cities go to cool off in the summertime you create bumper to bumper traffic every weekend in all of the small cool towns through out the state. Been there for 40 years, I know all about it.
Lake Havasu just had a nearby tornado - so honestly no where is really always safe.
Tornados do occasionally touch down, but not often and nothing like what happens in OK.
Tornado touchdown or just form the funnel cloud?
@@LivinginArizona I think they are still investigating if there was a touchdown. There are several videos and images of the clouds but no obvious touchdown shown except in the radar images that do show possible touchdown north of Havasu.
If you don’t live at a high elevation or can afford a summer home in a high elevation, There is no upside to living in Arizona. The valleys are hell on earth six months out of the year.
It’s not hell on earth if you work and stay indoors those six months though. I don’t even drive. My husband does.
Cool off with an aerial tour of Tucson! We took one with Volare Helicopters
Tucson had actually lots of snow so like once a week it would snow in my place
Not
