Tucson, Arizona is a thriving city of over one million people offering a mild year round climate with unique geographical characteristics. It is surrounded by mountains which makes outdoor activities such as hiking, rock climbing, biking, and horseback riding accessible right outside your door. In addition, Tucson is a short 5 hour drive from the beaches of San Diego and less than 4 hours from a snowy getaway in the winter to Flagstaff where you can enjoy plenty of winter activities. Tucson also hosts an array of cultural activities year round, such as street fairs, symphonies, ballets, and is a culinary and craft beer hotspot. Tucson also has 3 of the country’s top rated high schools and is a great place to raise a family.
