Arizona is a terrible place, do not think about living here. (Sedona: bills, food)

Phoenix is totally out for me as is Flagstaff (too much snow). Still contemplating Sierra Vista, Green Valley, or Sahuarita.

Yes, the comfort index is better in Phoenix. I use Sperling's all the time to see about climate, etc.

Thank you.

You do know that this information is also available on C-D, don't you? I used the C-D data to narrow down my choices by looking at the climate, rent / housing costs, and crime rates.

Oh yes! I use more sites checking things out than I care to mention.

I think after this winter we better think fast & furious before people start reevaluating Arizona.

Quick; the bugs, in particular scorpions (I think I saw one once), the coyotes - now those I have heard, although not seen, the HEAT...that should scare them off!

We've got to stop the migration before it starts. After all, Arizona IS a terrible place to live.

It hasn't rained here since LBJ was President.

Not to mention that everyone here is a bottom feeding, ultra conservative redneck who only drive lifted pick 'em up trucks and have random shootouts daily. There are no good paying jobs and your kids won't get an education, leaving them to only be qualified to work fast food for the rest of their lives.
