RELOCATING TO TUCSON

TUCSON AZ – The land ranges from dramatic mountainside sites to comfortable, easily build-able sites in family neighborhoods, to large multi-acre sites with a national forest for a backyard.

Relocating to Tucson/New Resident Necessities

These delightful temperatures make Tucson the ideal community for the outdoor enthusiast–whether that means enjoying the sunset on your front porch or hiking desert trails.

 

Vibrant Cultural Heritage

Tucson and its surrounding areas boast a diverse influence of Native American, Mexican, Spanish, and European cultures.

Lively Business Climate

Arizona has unique economic advantages due to its location in the central Southwest. Even in the sometimes tenuous national economic climate, Arizona’s economy has continued to prosper. Part of this steadfastness is due to its proximity to regional markets of growth like the West Coast, Mexico, and others. Tucson in particular remains a competitive and thriving place of business; the labor regulatory climate, competitive wages, simple state tax laws and forms, reasonable tax structure, prevalence and price of industrial properties, and award-winning education are just a few of the reasons that Tucson remains a partner to progress.

 

Thriving Arts & Entertainment
