Tucson, Arizona

Tucson looks like a picture postcard with mountains in the background, massive cactus in the foreground and beautiful rolling hills in between. Situated only 60 miles from the Arizona-Mexican border, it truly blends the two cultures. Imprints of early explorers from Spain, Native Americans and frontiersmen are seen and combine in gentle ways to create a special modern city.

Although a very old settlement, Tucson didn’t start to populate to any degree until around 1900 and has seen a slow steady growth since that time. It has been home to a number of military type installations, and now depends on advanced technology businesses and tourism for its economy.

With a near perfect climate (it is sunny 350 days per year), the city’s numerous resorts, golf courses and other outdoor recreational areas make it a destination for tourists and a wonderful place for living. Almost any choice of a Tucson apartment will put you near a great lifestyle.

Outdoor Lifestyle

So much about life in Tucson revolves around being outdoors that it isn’t a surprise to find so many parks and areas where you can pursue almost any activity. Sabino Canyon, which is a national park, provides near to town hiking, swimming and picnicking. The Desert Museum has incredible botanical gardens and is adjacent to another national park, Saguaro.

For indoor activities, Tucson has several good museums, a Titan missile museum and for sports fans, the University of Arizona Wildcats are a huge drawing card. Tucson is the home of quarter horse racing and spending an afternoon at Ritillo Downs is great fun.

A Look at Old and New

Your search for a Tucson rental apartment will present many choices. The downtown area finds loft conversions in a once historic area which now caters to the arts as well as new skyscrapers. Midtown houses the University of Arizona, Reid Park and historic architecture. You’ll find adobe houses and buildings, trendy shop and restaurants and a variety of people in this area.

As the city spreads out, there are varied new and old housing options. In each area, you will find historic and interesting mixed in with newer, more modern structures.  Tucson is a very bicycle friendly city and should be considered a transportation option when choosing a place to live.

Western Style Cuisine

As might be expected, Tucson’s cuisine revolves around Southwestern and Mexican cuisines, but also expect to be surprised. ‘Restaurant Row’ is located in East Tucson near many of the new corporate buildings, and you will find everything from Asian to Italian to American fare there. Traditional barrio food is plentiful in the largely Hispanic area of South Tucson. Once settled into your Tucson apartment, you will discover your own finds in your new neighborhood.

Finding a nightlife scene in Tucson will send you the Fourth Avenue and its many bars and restaurants. This is the area to find dancing and partying at places like Plush and The Surly Witch. It’s casual and local fun. A little more upscale is Club Congress downtown which hosts music on most nights and is always lively.
