Living in Southern Arizona

Southern Arizona’s crisp high-desert air, sunny climate, lack of natural disasters, and exceptional air quality make our corner of the world the picture of health and a healthy lifestyle. What’s the weather in Tucson like today?

Southern Arizona is home to a wide range of cultural, historical and picturesque attractions. Dining is diverse and delicious, with restaurants ranging from world-renowned gourmet to some of the best Mexican food this side of the border.

At more than 600 square miles, metropolitan Tucson is a study in contrasts. Historic adobes are preserved among downtown high-rises; resort hotels are nestled in picturesque foothills; cacti bloom in the center of the city; desert washes flow after occasional desert storms; and those who tire of poolside lounging can drive 30 miles up Mount Lemmon to ski in the cool mountain temperatures.
