Ha!!! Thats what I said just before I moved out here from MI. I've been out here for 4 years and HATE it! In the very near future you will see why for yourself. You are better off in MI.

So if you said that before you moved for your past "job" why are you here after that advice, waiting for what...the unemployment to run out or you totally lose it? Why did you move here? Curiosity, because I have lived in a lot of places and would not have with those feelings... You don't like people moving into Phoenix, You don't like where you are at...you don't even live in the place in question, you really need to speed the exodus from this whatever you are in....I find that hobbies are good to ease the mind and soul...find a passion to help with this..it would be healthy for you!!! while you plan the move...I am sure Michigan or Wisconsin would welcome you and the mindset with open arms...Best of all to you Krock

Speak for yourself, please. It is common knowledge you detest Arizona and; quite frankly, quite a few of us are tired of hearing about it.

I came to AZ due to a job I got. But that was back in 2005. Got laid off several months ago and am now unemployed--and literally almost homeless. Coming to AZ didnt work out for me, so I'm retunring to the Midwest. I have tons of family in Wisconsin, the Chicago area, Indiana and Michigan. Wisconsin will be really nice. I'm not a fan of winter, but HATE being hot all the time. Its just that I dont get what is so appealing about AZ, when people start to find out stuff. I speak out of frustration a lot, but the experiences I've had here I would rather forget.

I live in Sierra Vista but have no school age children 79f today with a low in the 50s. I have not run A/C or heat for over a month. Water is NOT a problem and the economy is booming. Ft Huachuca is building everywhere and has kept every construction worker in town employed. If you are military I'd go for living on base, most of the housing and all of the schools are new. The only problem I have found is an apparent shortage of doctors. It can take a while to get an appointment.
You will see fewer illegals here than anywhere in the country I have been, probably because Border Patrol is the 2nd largest employer in the county and they have sent employers to jail for hiring them. There aren't even any at the car wash.
