A hard Mining Town originally. Went to Hippies/Artists in the late 60's, now it's went Penny-Loafer soft.

As you travel through Arizona....you come to realize there’s an unusual story with almost every single town that you drive into.

Tucson....is basically run by three factions: the massive retiree front, the university crowd, and the neighborhood associations.

Tombstone....existing mostly off retirees and tourism.

Bisbee and Sedona are all art-run towns and nintey-percent liberal slant on life. Magic crystals are a big-seller in each.

Show Low...mostly a conservative area.

Goggle maps even go to the extent of labeling Tucson into Wards, so that you get the drift of your area’s voting tendencies.

Even back in the 80’s when I was stationed at Huachuca, those descriptions of the towns were, and are, dead on.

I did like Bisbee side trips, but I liked Tombstone better.
