Congratulations! If you're moving to the Tucson area or considering it, you've found a great community to call home.
The Best of the Southwest
Native Americans, Spanish colonialists, Mexican settlers, Western pioneers and the modern world all had a part in shaping Tucson's culture. A 150-year-old adobe home stands in the shadow of a modern skyscraper. The remains of the once-formidable regimental headquarters of the U.S. Cavalry are surrounded by a civic park. Parishioners worship everyday at a centuries-old Spanish mission. Hikers routinely pass pre-Colombian petroglyphs on the trail.
A City on the Move
Tucson, Arizona, known locally as the Old Pueblo, is a fast-growing metropolitan area of more than 800,000 people and the seat of government for Pima County. Its culture blends the best of contemporary shopping, dining and art with historic influences of centuries-old civilizations. The city is surrounded by majestic desert, verdant canyons and rugged mountains, all beneath an endless expanse of some of the bluest sky you'll ever see
Community Pride
Arizona's second largest city, with just over 800,000 in the greater Tucson area which has plenty to offer outdoor enthusiasts, history buffs, urban cowboys, and culture vultures alike. Spread out over a 500-square-mile valley surrounded by five mountain ranges, Tucson is a fresh-air fan's dream. Visitors enjoy hiking and horseback riding among towering saguaro cactuses -- Saguaro National Park has the world's largest concentration of them -- or teeing off on one of the area's many fine golf courses designed by some of the worlds top golfers. Aficionados of the feathered find themselves in bird-watching heaven and everyone is astounded by the Sonoran Desert blooms. Spa lovers are in heaven in Tucson which is home to world class spas including the world famous Canyon Ranch and Miraval Life in Balance spas. And Tucson is the only city in the nation to host three Major League Baseball teams for Spring Training in March every year. Even rock hounds from all over the globe know Tucson is home to the worlds largest gem, mineral and fossil show.

So Seasonal
Civilized pleasures are plentiful, too. Tucson is one of only a few cities in the U.S. that has a resident symphony as well as opera, theater, and ballet companies. Palate-stimulating southwest cuisine and authentic Mexican food are among the city's myriad dining options, and many resorts offer all the latest amenities in a casual, laid-back atmosphere. Although lively nightspots are easy to find, Tucson is also ideal for folks who are happy just to gaze at the stars after dark. Ordinances against "light pollution," designed to aid visibility at the many world-class observatories in the area, ensure that the views of the heavens are optimal for even streetside astronomers.
Fit for a Perfect Day
Outdoor activity comes naturally in Tucson and Southern Arizona. Great weather and a varied landscape provide many opportunities for recreation and adventure. A network of urban bicycling paths make Tucson popular for leisure and competitive cycling. Parklands here boast trails, campsites and stables. A perfect selection for hiking, mountain biking, camping, and horseback riding, by moonlight or daylight. There's plenty to keep birdwatchers and stargazers occupied day and night. For adventure lovers, Jeep expeditions, helicopter tours, and skydiving trips can be arranged. At the end of the day, sunsets throughout Tucson and Southern Arizona sunsets are exquisite.
