We moved to Tucson, Arizona! The Heart of the Southwest. 

Definitely a clean and beautiful place to live. So much to do and lots of options to shop, dine and have fun!!

100 percent agree with everything you said. We just moved here from Los Angeles. Have some friends here who made the move from Los Angeles in 2018. Love the Catalina Foothills and Oro Valley but we bought in Sahuarita due to more bang for your buck. The cave you are talking about is Colossal Cave in the Rincon Mountains. It's worth a visit for sure. A couple cool clubs and restaurants on the outskirts like The Steak Out in Sonoria and The Longhorn in Amado with their cowboy themes. Love the beautiful upscale mall in Catalina Foothills called La Encantada. Some very nice restaurants and shops there. The Hub in Downtown Tucson is also pretty cool. The sketchy areas I've seen...like around Speedway near the 10 freeway. But, compared to skid row in Los Angeles and the uptick in crime in the San Fernando Valley, Tucson is much better. I, too, had no issue with the summer heat. We did have some heavy duty hail during monsoon season. Yes, you have to watch out for wild life and also adjust to there only being the 10 and 19 freeways. However, for me and my family, the pluses far outweigh any negative aspects. I do miss no ocean trips but everyone says it's about a 7 hour drive to San Diego or 3.5 hours to Rocky Point Beach in Mexico. I'm not feeling it safe to drive to Rocky Point. Maybe I'm wrong. If my family demands beach time, we'll just go to San Diego for an extended weekend. And, as you pointed out, Tucson International Airport is very handy for travel. Enjoyed your video, especially the owl footage! Look forward to seeing more of your postings on Tucson.

We like it here so far 🌵🌵

I like your video! It is very informative. Hope you find lots of fun things to do in Tucson with your beautiful wife and your new baby! ❤

Awesome Travis!! Looking forward to seeing you soon:)

Welcome to Tucson. I am originally from Hobbs. Nice to find your video.

I found this video very interesting and informative.I am a retiree living in Maryland,...and my partner and have totally enjoyed all of our trips to the Southwest. We recently spent time in New Mexico,...including Taos and Santa Fe. She and I always talk about moving to that area (Arizona or New Mexico),...but,...an area that has not been ''discovered'' yet,.......which is becoming almost impossible these days,

I travel to Dallas and Houston directly from Tucson. Southwest and American flies directly from Dallas Fort worth and Houston every day. Tucson has more than just Raytheon, Davis Martin, and the university of Arizona. It depends on your profession. From Nursing to Truck Drivers, High tech, Amazon, more warehouses such as Containers, Chamberlain, FedEx, UPS, DHL, Semi Conductors, Bio technology, Pharmaceutical including Ventana Pharmaceuticals, Bombardier, and other Aerospace industries, Catapillar, etc. The list goes on. People who think we have limited jobs here are not looking in the right places. The pay isn't much of a difference from Phoenix either. I lived in Phoenix for 13 years. I am not going into that heat and congestion to live. Tucson has diverse natural beauty. Phoenix is all artificial except in some outlining areas like East Mesa and Scottsdale, etc.

I live in Tucson and its always easy to put the Southside down and move on. But, there is more then just the negative you pointed it. Tucson is a nice place to live. Granted the Southside isnt the foothills but it has its nice homes as well. But being that you're not a local you wouldn't know it. You want authentic food hit the Southside. You want culture hit the Southside. Not all is negative on the Southside. Again, I get it we don't shine like a knew penny on our side of town. But if you look close enough you'll find a few on the ground. Maybe look for a few. You might benefit from it!

I was hoping for more Roswell videos, but I understand. I left New Mexico as well. I still want to spend more time in Roswell. Tuscan I'm sure is great. Thanks Travis

Haha welcome to the area. South Tucson may make you nervous but if you want some good street food, dodging a few bullets is worth the risk. Lol. Learn the backroads, sometimes it may be more miles but will be a lot quicker especially if coming back from the west side.

You Should See A Crested Saguaro Or Even More rare, A Golden Saguaro.

It’s not an hour from Phoenix. Today was 1-:45- 2 hrs with traffic

Hi I just moved away from Tucson two years ago to Pittsburgh Pennsylvania cuz way to hot 🥵 me and my family been in Tucson for 26 years where did you move from hi btw

good day~ this is epic uploading,catch you later!

What apartments are those ? Hilands?

You coming from Roswell you should fit right in with barrio living in Tucson.

$800 on the foothills? Where?

Monsoons it gets really humade

Tucson is great but people from California are slowly ruining it.

The best thing that came out of Tucson was I-10.

Clean?!?!? Have you EVER been to Tucson?!?!? Definitely NOT clean with all the homeless

Keep the Caliibs away or they’ll ruin it also.

Funny you mention the cost of living being low. It has significantly risen to the point where it has become damn near unaffordable for many people here. Rent goes up, but our salaries remain the same. My apartment was $630 a month when I moved into it in 2019. My rent has increased $300 since.
