Tucson is a very friendly city in my opinion. Also, Sante Fe, NM and Flagstaff, AZ seem to have very friendly, welcoming people!

Yes to Flagstaff. I've rarely seen strangers chatting it up like that.

Flagstaff, AZ or even Lake Havasu City, AZ but if your thinking about moving I'd go with Flagstaff

The Southwest is much friendlier than the West Coast.

@cacto Soooooooo True. I've been to Arizona, California, Nevada, New Mexico, and Utah, and I must say Arizona is the Friendliest, with New Mexico and Utah close behind. California is just a bunch of drama queens, like seriously I've never seen people make such a small thing into such a big fuss. Nevada I really have no comment on. It's Vegas, it's their job to be nice to their costumers. So you can't really tell if its fake nice or real nice (ps I haven't been to Reno or Carson City, so I really don't know about them). Though the northwest cost, Seattle, I've heard is nice.

Ya, I was only in Albuquerque for a very short time, But the people were very friendly. I say Arizona because I've been here longer, and the people in Flagstaff, Kingman, and Lake Havasu are very friendly and welcoming.

People in the Southwest do seem different. Almost a bit like Southerners.
