Albuquerque because it's Mild four seasons, culture, diversity, history, food, and scenary and it's not as close to the border as Tucson.
And Tucson has no diversity, culture, history, food, or scenery? There's four seasons too, though not in the usual way they're experienced in temperate climates in the North, but not too different from ABQ. They're 95 all summer, Tucson's 105 all summer. They get snowed on, Tucson gets snow on the foothills around town. Mild is subjective, 15 or 20 degrees above zero makes it just as difficult to enjoy the outdoors as 115. Some would say they go out when it's 20 degrees out, I hang out outside all summer in Phoenix.
Not that Tucson has no diversity, culture, history , food or scenery, but Albuquerque has far superior all of that over Tucson's anyday if you ask me.
This whole "no diversity/less diversity" thing is just crappola if you ask me. I have friends who live in ABQ and I know for a fact that they do not sit around discussing how ABQ's diversity, culture, history, food, and scenery are far superior to Tucson's or other cities because it isn't.
