Tucson vs. Bullhead City
I am currently deciding on whether to move to Bullhead City or Tucson. There are job opportunities in both cities for me and I am wondering what the pros and cons are of both cities. Any opinions?

Personally I would move to Tucson. I've been to both areas ,and Tucson will afford you the most opportunities in the long run. Bullhead city seems to be geared mostly to the gambling industry. Tucson is more advanced and has everything a person would desire in a medium sized city. There is more to do and the area has many scenic areas. They have more amenities, doctors, hospitals, all services, etal.
bummer, who may send me to my room for reccomending Tucson increasing it's population, is a good one to get information from. Besides being a all around good guy, he's very knowledgeable about Tucson. He lives there.

I would have to pick Bullhead City..... just because it's smaller and has a river!
Colorado River blw Davis Dam (a mile or so north of BHC)

Tucson has a superior climate to Bullhead City-- Bullhead City is actually hotter than Phoenix, regularly getting in the 120s.

This sounds like a logical and insightful reason...  What is this here, a kindergarten?!

To be honest; if at all possible, visit both communities and draw your own conclusions.
Follow your gut----------it is almost never wrong 
I personally do not care for Tucson yet am no big fan of BHC either---------but, those are my prejudices admittedly.

I love the BHC area. The river is beautiful. It's Palm Springs with water!
