Redfin, a real estate company headquartered in Seattle, Washington, threw together its top 10 places to live in Arizona this year and the Old Pueblo came out on top.
Hey, that’s pretty cool! Here’s what they had to say about the city:
“Tucson tops our list as the best place to live in Arizona. Home to gorgeous weather, a world-renowned cycling race, and surrounded by four mountain ranges providing endless vistas and hiking trails, Tucson is truly an outdoor haven.”
“For example, Saguaro National Park and Catalina State Park offer unparalleled opportunities for hiking, camping, and wildlife viewing, drawing visitors from far and wide. Nearby, the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum highlights the region’s unique history.”
And, of course, they mentioned our wonderful food scene.
“Perhaps most famously, Tucson is a UNESCO City of Gastronomy, giving credence to the region’s remarkable cuisine and dedication to Indigenous, Hispanic, and immigrant food heritage. The city also certifies restaurants that meet specific criteria, and many people visit Tucson just to experience the delicious food.”
So, if you’re new to the city, or have lived in Tucson for a while and are just now learning about our culinary scene, here are a few interactive guides to help you on your flavorful journey.
