I highly recommend Arizona. Low taxes. Low cost of living. In general a western attitude about being independent (somewhat spoiled by the people who have moved in from socialist republics). Pick your climate, starting with incredible sun and low humidity in the desert valley of Phoenix to the snow and cold of the high country around Flagstaff. If you live on the edge of Phoenix it is cooler. Outside of Phoenix land costs are much lower. It depends on what you like. Great airport. Spectacular scenery. Mayo Clinic and other good hospitals.

Phoenix is a high-tech, prosperous, growing city. I love it here. It would take a SWAT team to get me to move.

I love Flagstaff. What a great little town.

Sierra Vista, Arizona is a well-kept retirement community secret. Honestly, you should check it out. Might as well because apparently the secret hasn't been very "well-kept" lately. Our gated, patio-home communities are spreading like wildfire. Retirees are the biggest demographic around here anymore.

You know, I am really sick of the snide remarks of some people out west who think they have a lock on being freedom loving. Most Western states would still be nothing but sagebrush blowing in the wind were it not for federal water projects.
