    If you are driving somewhere in the state and you see a dust storm heading your way, do not try to drive through it. Get as far as you can off the road and turn your lights off. Just stay there until the storm passes over you. It only takes a few minutes generally. After the dust passes over you, be prepared for a lot of rain!

    I was born here in 1951. Yep, I'm 70. Been all over the world, wound up back here. Arizona has low desert, high desert, forest, snow, above the tree line, Flats, ravines, rivers, lakes and one big canyon. We have great old west and mining towns. 1/3 rd of Teddy's Rough Riders came from here. Lots of old mines and a few caves too. Everything. If you are new to the south west, try Tucson first. Even Paul McCartney bought a home there. Home of Linda Ronstat too. People come and people go, but I'm still here. I like it.

    My gut has been telling me to move to Arizona since I was in elementary school. I always remember drinking Arizona Iced Tea in those big-ass cans in the real early 90's telling my buddies "I'm gonna move to Arizona one day" and them looking at me like I was nuts. My favorite sports team growing up was the Phoenix Suns. Native American culture, wisdom, art, and way of life has always drawn me in and I really enjoy it. My zodiac is the scorpion. I feel I will live better in that part of the country due to heart conditions that I've developed over the past two years. I can go on and on. All I'm saying is "I cannot wait to finally leave Boston and this way of life that I know oh so well behind in the dust.

      We are considering a move to Arizona in the next few years if the economy holds together. I always knew I belonged in the south west too, since my first trip out that way many years ago. I am from the Detroit area and while I do believe Michigan is a beautiful paradise in its own right, the desert just agrees with my body better. We carefully considered all the southwest states, and landed on Arizona because the laws are solid, the cultural diversity is awesome, and the diversity of the geography means we can do basically anything we want without even leaving state. I just worry about the poisonous/venomous critters. coming from a place where there are very few of these kinds of threats to a place where there are so many is a bit daunting. LOL

      Yes embrace, so if you are a changeling type voter find somewhere else, we like fishing and hunting camping and we have some great scenic getaways. On the subject of hunting the folks in Az have a lot of hunting gear and it's open carry is most parts. Dont do it in the cities it's sort of frowned upon. But in rural area it's fairly common. So dont freak out city folks, oh and they have earthquake fault zones, a few in active volcanoes, and flash floods. Don't ever camp in a dry creek bed, and make sure you are a bit away during monsoon season ..NEVER!!! It can be extremely hot in the summer , so hydrate!! Do yard by 9am lol.

      Have you ever been to Arizona? It's really nice here. I don't know what Australia's like, I have seen a lot of documentaries about the deadly wildlife there. It sounds like a very scary place to live.
      My most favourite celebrity from Australia is Steve Irwin. I remember where I was when he passed from a stupid stingray barb to the heart. I was at work, a nurse, passing morning meds in Chico, California. That was back in 2006. How sad, he was a good man.
      I was bred, born, and raised in Northern California. Summer of 2019 it was 121° F. Then I was chasing a dream in Washington State, but yeck!!! That was not the place for me. Now in October 2021 I find myself, my husband and our three little fur babies living in a RV in Quartzsite, Arizona. Ready to start all over again. I'm 60 and my hubby is 64.

      @Lisa Bell I'm a native too and Arizona has been getting better and better each year for some of the reasons you said. Plus teachers forced better pay and more money to education, wages have increased and many more statistics I could go over and over and over! Arizona is becoming a really great place to live. The people who say that would rather see our state look like Alabama or Mississippi or Wyoming. They don't want to see Arizona or Phoenix become a major metropolitan area in the world!

    The heat of Arizona is no joke. Being a kid from, Detroit, Michigan. With grandparents and an uncle in Tucson, Arizona. We drove down to Tucson, Arizona. In our brand-new big, 1970 Chevy Station wagon. And I was able to bring my 10 speed bicycle with me. At, 13 years of age.
    I loved Tucson. Sure it was hot. But it was nice and dry. Compared to the, murderous humidity. Of living on the Great Lakes. What a relief!
    And so we were going to be there for the summer. And on this beautiful bright and sunny day. It was a nice warm, 115°F. And I went out riding my bicycle. Around downtown Tucson area.
    At one point. I stopped. I looked at the building. With the time and temperature on it. It was 4:30 PM and 115°. And I had no idea where I was? Or, where I was staying? Who I was staying with? Or, what their names were? Oh? Oh? Something's wrong……? Something is very wrong.
    I think I sort of realized. I had come down with a case of sunstroke, heat prostration? And I knew I was in trouble. I did not know what to do? But then I remembered, something.
    My uncle had 5 Tire Stores.. And was called the Tire King of Tucson. So I went to a phone booth. Grab the phone book. And look for Tire King. Because I can't remember my uncles name? It's my mom's maiden name. I can't remember my mother's maiden name. But I remember Tire King. And there's a phone number!
    I called the phone number. Got some guy on the phone. Told him my uncle owned the place and I need some help. He asked me what the problem was? I told him I did not know my uncles name? He realized what the problem was. He says hold on.
    And so he picked up another phone.. And called my uncle who was at one of the other stores. Told him I was in trouble. And what corner I was standing on.
    He kept on talking to me. And within a few minutes. My uncle pulled up. And rescued me. He took me back to my grandparents high-rise apartment. They loaded me up with water and salt tablets. And stuck me on the living room couch. Where I remained. For the next day. With the worst headache. I had ever had in my life. In my young 13-year-old, life. And realized I made a mistake and dodged, death. By remaining in the downtown area. I never broke a sweat. As the sweat drives. Before it comes out the pores of your skin. You never sweat. You just, passsout, fall over and die. If you are not cautiously careful with the heat. In, Arizona. Even if you're downtown on a bicycle. As I rode into downtown from the suburbs. Just a couple of miles out. Like two or three. Like nothing.
    And so I don't think I was outside for more than an hour and 1/2. Before I was overcome. I went through no, issues or problems. Until I didn't know where I was? And I knew. That I should know where I am. But I don't. And something was very wrong.
    It was a very sobering lesson to learn. About how fast one can be overcome. Even at the peak of, super energetic health of 13. Oh my goodness?
    And ever since then. Not only have I been very careful. Now at 68. I am overcome by the heat, very easily. But I cannot tolerate the cold. So it's heat for me, baby. Give me that heat. At least I will pass away comfortably. Not shivering and cold.
    Yes I don't think I would've gone much further before collapsing. Good thing I was near a payphone.. When there used to be, payphones. And calls were only, $0.10. One thin dime. But they are now, historical artifacts. Does a payphone have unlimited service? Yes if you pay for it. It's only limited by your coinage. That's why we still have coins. It was for phone calls, gumballs and candy bars. Not to mention cigarettes in machines. When a pack of cigarettes would cost you $0.35. Even at 13 years of age. Good thing I never smoked, cigarettes. Until I was age, 56. And I've got a lot of cigarettes to smoke before catching up to everybody's Cancer. Capricorn,, Pisces. Unicorns et al.
    I think I have some permanent brain damage from sun cooking? I got a sunburn on my brain! And Blisters on my Fingers!

      Protect everything window tint, shades. For your wind front windscreen when you park cause not everybody can park under a tree. Don't leave the house without stuff to drink. I keep a cooler usually in my truck. With ice and water and drinks don't get caught out here in the summer time with no drinks it could be your last mistake. Make sure you've had the maintenance done on your vehicle before even coming out here. If you gotta relocate in the summer you know. Check your belt hoses, all your liquids have your oil changed. Have the car vehicle in top condition? So you don't break down on the highway.

    "Leave the 'customs' of your previous state, and embrace Arizona", and "Remember why you left, and don't try to change Arizona". Can folks tell me more what is actually meant by this? My wife and I are planning to move to Arizona next year (Phoenix area). We are moving from St Paul, Minnesota. I grew up in a small town in Wisconsin, and she grew up about an hour outside New York City. We are leaving, because when our son attended ASU, we fell in love with the natural beauty of the state, the warmer climate, the closer proximity to an ocean, the great restaurants, the outdoor activities, and the open/friendly people. That said, I'm proud of where I grew up, my wife is proud of where she grew up, and we're proud to have raised two great kids in Minnesota. What are we supposed to "forget"? Can't we feel good about where we've been, and also feel good about where we are? Is it o.k. to simply have a "live and let live" mentality?

Despite most of those people saying that came from somewhere else. But basically what it means don't vote for a Democrat or else Republicans wish you would die or move back home. If you vote republican, you are welcome here to these few nut balls. If you vote for a Democrat they claim you are trying to change Arizona and should have left your values and beliefs back where you came from!

Arizona used to be very conservative but is now purple (Maricopa County) I've been here since 1972 and have seen the the negative changes in the Phoenix Metro area. Since the mid 1980's Californians were enticed to move here and continue to work in california with hourly flights to LA, San Diego and San Francisco for 50 dollars or less. Alot of them brought their liberal views and have californcated Arizona. I moved out of Maricopa County ( a purple county) to the next county in 1994 but still in the Phoenix/ Mesa Metro area that is conservative, open spaces , horse property everywhere, Dark Sky's is law and enforced. Phoenix is very blue and is looking like L.A .

If you like the scenic route, I've seen it all. I love living here but it's so much different than living in Spokane WA. There, you are living at a higher elevation but everything is pretty much FLAT. lol! I did visit before moving here but the road trip was very short. I flew to Vegas and drove the rest of the way.

Will Arizona work for me as I’m getting close to being aged 59. I don’t like air conditioning that much anymore because it makes me physically uncomfortable and unable to move. I love the sunny area with a few shade. I drink a lot of water even in cold temperatures. I can not tolerate hills. Can walk better in flat areas. I love doing ceramics but I can’t tolerate the wind. I like wildlife but I can’t go on long hours of hiking due to my lower back issues from being hit by a car in 1999. The hills and then the pandemic aggravated my lower back even more.

      Most of that is filmed in Fountain Hills. Including that scene

    I was on board until you said basically you better not go to a game and support another team... that's part of the fun an if anyone has actual problem with someone rooting for a different team they need psychiatric help

    I’m new from Alabama, November will be my 1 year anniversary. In august, there was like a week, I had to leave oven mits in my console. I even had a windshield reflective shade and my windows are tinted ..also those fabreeze vent plugs or the rear view scents last MAYBE 4 days. Cut that cost out all together 0-0. It’s a waste.
    There’s so much trash at South Mountain, I was picking it up for a few months but it almost invites the less fortunate (hobos?) when it’s clean.
    There’s a lot of Now Hiring jobs out here but most of these jobs are temp to perm without promise to go permanent or contract.
    One thing that threw me off was the 3 lane lights; one would stay red and the other 2 would be green, but you still should “Go” when the other two lights show green. I got honked at so many times for stopping at a red light 🤪
    Or not knowing I had to be in the turning lane one red light back to get I. The turning lane that GPS was telling me. Seems obvious and no brained NOW but we didn’t have a set up like that. 😂
    Also, these roads don’t have the pavement that absorbs water. Water just sits in the roads if it rains.
    I find that these plants survive the heat: toothpick cactus, Mexican fence post cactus, Gardenia shrubs, barrel cactus, lantanas, fire stick cactus, Johnny bottle brush, rosemary, Texas sage.
    Keratin treatments will also save the length of your hair, start those almost immediately (Launey @ Hair Attractions) $30.00. Especially if you are coming from a place of humidity.
    The water thing is legit, sometimes water doesn’t cut it, I still drink pedialyte or I get headaches or when I feel one coming on I take a few gulps. And then the headache is gone.

      I have a 1/2 gallon bottle of watered-down Power Ade in the fridge. It still keeps you hydrated, but fewer calories than the pure stuff.

    Thank you for mentioning about the little animals so important people are still stupid out here in LA and they leave their animals in the car when it's. Way too hot

    After 25 years in the bay moved to Gilbert a month ago, I don't believe it is practical to expect folks like myself to switch alliances as soon as I crossed Bakersfield. I love Arizona and cherish the intact way of life and freedoms and as a registered conservative I have nothing to change in this state when it comes to politics however switching loyalty overnight is asking for too much !! For example : I watched Steph Curry live 2nd row seat at the old oakland arena in his rookie season and watched in front of my very eyes the joy == >Igoudala, Green, Curry and Thompson brought to the Warrior fans who were for decades considered the DOORMAT of the nba or the legacy Bill Walsh left for the 9ers to inspire multiple head Coaches including Pete Carrol !! I really njoy the sport and this year the Cardinals have a real shot of going all the way while the Suns are up right there with Golden State ... .I will let you decide if you would change your loyalty overnight if you were in my shoes !!!

    Don’t jump on the band wagon.
    There are so many people who jump on the band wagon and say “ If I live here, I support my state, and team.” No. If you are loyal to your team; hell yeah love your team.

    Love how you said no one likes people from other teams flexing against their home team in football Cardinals. True, I agree with you. But, it's like that everywhere you go. I lived all my life in NY and when I've gone to football games, I never had problems going with my Green Bay Packers jerseys w my whole family. I also went a couple of years ago to watch a Arizona vs Packers game and the Arizona people weren't mean at all. I loved them! They were so nice! And I even took pictures w my family and other family w Arizona jerseys on. I had a blast. Even if we don't like it, we have to deal with it. It's sports! I love Arizona and their people. I've always wanted to live there. Who knows, let's see. 😂
