Oro Valley. We loved it there. Single parent with teen and a kid. We rented and rent increased by $200 by end of contract. I always felt safe, and everything felt close by. I would return

[@TucsonArizona]

L❤️❤️❤️❤️VE Oro Valley! 🤩

[@jess97724]

Oro Valley was way too boring for me

[@venusdelightus6567]

Bought a home with help from Kimberly. Was a wonderful and quick experience. Ended up in Vail. She was great about listening to what we wanted and showing us around the area. Thank you Kimberly!

[@TucsonArizona]

Thanks so much for these kind words! You made my day! 🥰 Vail is so beautiful!!! 🌵🌵🌵

Thank you for your view and comment! Hope you are having a great holiday season! ❤️💚❤️💚

You did a good job in your narration, giving anyone looking to move to Tucson a good overview.

[@frankwashington8740]

My hat is off to you.This is best informative video yet.You covered Catalina Foothills which was my first choice but Vail or Tanque Verde has sparked my interest as well.

[@TucsonArizona]

So glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for the view and comment!

[@IzInAZ]

I grew up off Wentworth Road near Reddington. My parents have been in the same house for about 45 years out there. Their house is about a football field away from the new Tanque Verde elementary. I went to the old T.V. which is now the new Emily Gray jr high. The old Emily gray I went to is now Tanque Verde highschool. I graduated Sabino in 96 and all these changes make me feel old, hehe.

[@TucsonArizona]

Hah! Me too! Looks like we had a year of overlap at Sabino!

We lived off of Broadway on north belvedere. Tried to Google the house we lived in but it's gone.looks like a large commercial business building there now from the picture. Used to be a circle k on the corner. I remember Catalina foothills. When I was young I did yard work for an elderly woman. My uncle worked with her daughter. That's how I got the job. Loved the house !! Very beautiful piece of land!! Almost like in the country!! Classic Sonoran desert!! Lots of cacti, paloverde & mesquite trees. And wildlife. I don't know about now, but it sure was beautiful then!! I remember her paying me to dig up chollas from the wash below her house and plant them under her windows cause she had someone looking in her window. I have to say I earned that 10 dollar bill!!! Ouch!!! Hahaha!! To this day i still love cacti and desert plants!! So much that i have a 12 x 25 x 10 greenhouse here in the Ozarks just full of them!!! I have a channel all about them. If you wish to see them just go to my channel! From Morris Park in the Ozarks, have a wonderful evening!!!

[@rpinter677]

Kimberly helped us find a home in Casa Adobes. The home and area are great! The bike trail access is very close and we're not far from OroValley.

[@TucsonArizona]

Thanks for the comment Rick! I love the Casas Adobes area! Hope you guys are doing great! 😄

Thank you and I wish you luck always and I am a tourist from the state of Kuwait and currently in Tucson I love Tucson

[@TucsonArizona]

So glad you like it here! I love Tucson too! ☀️

[@natalie9527]

As a grad student, I would love to see a video about dining and nightlife in Tucson, even if it's a little outside of your channel. I'd love to know a bit more about the youth culture here!

[@TucsonArizona]

Ok I’ll add it to my list! Thanks for the idea! 😄

[@landtuna3469]

Dining is great especially if you like Mexican food but other cultures are also represented. Nightlife other than the UofA area doesn't exist (unless you love astronomy).

[@rhshel]

listening to your perspective is interesting as I've lived here 75 years. I came here in 1948. Everything was downtown. I remember horse tie ups at the airport. I grew up in the Amphi area.

[@TucsonArizona]

Very cool! I grew up not far from there

[@erickaphish]

I love Tucson. My daughter and I have been going every February for the gem show. Would love to retire there one day. Thanks for this video

[@TucsonArizona]

The gem show is awesome! So glad you love it here!!! 🥰

Nailed it on this one!!

[@TucsonArizona]

Thanks so much for checking out the channel! Glad you liked the video!

[@Greenchileaddict]

When we moved here about 4 years ago we lived in Tucson Estates on the west side. At first you feel as if you're in the middle of nowhere but really we were 15 minutes or so from Midvale Park and The Spectrum.

[@TucsonArizona]

Yes that area is both secluded and private, AND close to many things at the same time! There is also a lot of new construction going up not far from there in recent years. Thanks for the comment!

[@jennysjourney02]

Great video. Tucson is beautiful.

[@TucsonArizona]

Thanks for the comment!!! I love it here! 🌵

[@taquitopicante5863]

Spot on, Kimberly! I'd Like to add that Rancho Vistoso in Oro Valley is a really nice community. Also, I can vouch for you on how nice SaddleBrooke is too. Considered an "active adult community" residents must be 45 years old minimum to live here. And being so close to the Catalina Mountains, sightings of javelina, bob cats, coyotes, road runners and mule deer are pretty common.

[@TucsonArizona]

I love Rancho Vistoso! I actually talk about it in another video where I discuss best neighborhoods 😊 thanks for your view and comment!

[@starforcefighter]

Great video, great information on the suburbs 👍

[@TucsonArizona]

Thanks so much! I love our suburbs!

[@nicoleelias4918]

We are in the process of closing on property in the Red Rock (Marana zip code) area and are so thrilled! We plan to build over time and be ready to move out there by 2026.

[@TucsonArizona]

Very cool! Welcome to the Tucson area!

[@sandiemallan7447]

definitely love the foothills best but Tanque Verde is beautiful too. I'd be happy in either

Both are lovely! ❤️🌵 Thanks for checking out the channel!

Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@richardwhitehead4684]

Another informative video. Thank you. Question: What’s the area of Tucson proper that borders the foothills?

[@TucsonArizona]

I believe that anything north of River Road , east or Oracle Road, and west of Sabino Canyon is technically the Foothills.

[@richardwhitehead4684]

@@TucsonArizona thank you

[@rodgalloway6340]

Thank you very much.

[@TucsonArizona]

My pleasure! Glad you enjoyed!

[@carlosvictoriafalcon637]

My parents went to Tucson (lived in San Antonio) and stopped in South Tucson before visiting relatives in town. They walked into El Minidito and ran into my cousin who lived next to the To hono Odom reservation. If I can convince my NY born wife to move, I’d move to Tucson (my birthplace) in a NY minute. It is a great town with a unique vibe

[@TucsonArizona]

Yes I love it here!

[@tekxpert1708]

how bout sierra vista az?

[@TucsonArizona]

I wouldn’t really consider Sierra Vista to be a suburb of Tucson because it’s about a good hour and 10-30 mins from the middle of Tucson and all the other places mentioned in this video are no more than about 30-40 minutes from midtown Tucson. But Sierra Vista is a town in Arizona that is located in Cochise county. I have spent a Little bit of time there, but I do not know much about the town and I do not work or sell real estate in that town so typically when people ask me questions about it, I refer them to another realtor in my brokerage that works and specializes in that town. Thank you so much for checking out the channel!

[@MTknitter22]

Sierra Vista in Cochise County very near MX border with the problems you read about. We lived there in 60’s, 70’s.

[@MasaMuneDenadoro]

Rancho Del Cerro area, western part near Saguaro Natl Park. Thoughts on the neighborhood?

[@TucsonArizona]

I like the west side because it’s beautiful. I love the views of the Tucson mountains. That neighborhood is relatively easy access to the freeway and to Silverbell Road, which has a lot of restaurants and shops.

[@BerkeleyGal2966]

I was hoping to hear about corona de tucson.

[@TucsonArizona]

Corona is actually part of Vail. It’s located south of the freeway. It’s a cool area but not a lot of amenities out there. I can add that to the list to do a video. Thanks for checking out the channel!

[@chaseiphone6552]

I WISH YOU WOULD DO A SEPARATE VIDEO ON VAIL AZ.. this is a hidden gem 💎

Will Oro valley go back to 2019 prices after the crash?

[@TucsonArizona]

Good question… I’m seeing everything across the board sit on market a little longer these days, with fewer bidding wars. There are still some though. Home prices are dropping for the homes that sit a little longer. Thanks for the view and comment!

[@vibegt3892]

I absolutely love Tucson. I hope the move there by 2027. Hopefully prices don’t go too much higher.

[@TucsonArizona]

Tucson would love to have you! 🌵☀️🌵

[@soulfulturquiose]

Do you also handle rentals within the Tucson/Vail area? I am relocating from WV this summer and could use someone on the ground there that can guide us in our move. Please let me know, I'd love to work with you. Thanks!

[@TucsonArizona]

Hi there I do not do rentals, but I do have a video on this channel about renting and apartments in Tucson Arizona. Feel free to check out that video after this one! Thanks for checking out the channel!

[@tiabryce4973]

What’s the town with great schools and close to military? Hard to understand

[@TucsonArizona]

The Davis Monthan Air Force Base is located right in the middle of the city of Tucson so pretty much anywhere you live you will have fairly easy access. However, a lot of military (active and retired) live in the unincorporated area of Vail (or at least in the Vail school district) on Tucson Southeast side, because that school district is one of the top school districts in the state, and that area is sort of a midpoint to both Davis Monthan Air Force Base, and Fort Huachuca in Sierra Vista. Thanks for the view and comment!

[@brianorella6086]

Do u know of any pull behind campers for sale in your area

[@TucsonArizona]

Unfortunately no… I recommend checking out marketplace. Good luck!

[@brianorella6086]

ok i will try that

[@ingriddurden3929]

OMG I lived in the north of Tucson 20 years ago. It was all desert and saguaro cacti.... now it has mushroom houses. I sit here crying

[@TucsonArizona]

We still have plenty of beautiful desert and saguaro thank goodness!!! 🌵😎☀️

[@inthewoods6111]

Tanque Verde. Nice area, no hoa and 4,1 acres....

[@TucsonArizona]

Yes, I love TV! 🌵🌵🌵

[@TylerChristoher]

Marana is where it's at. Foothills is nice too better if you have the money . Grew up in Continental ranch in Marana moved there from Phoenix when it was a two-lane road and only a Burger King shell and McDonald's on cortaro and I-10. Watched it blow up growing up in population and everything. Worked with an organization and we got BMX access for all the kids now to ride their bikes in the skatepark way back in the day when I was still 18. Now kids could ride there without getting arrested like they used to arrest us just for riding bikes

[@TucsonArizona]

I love Marana. I love the views of the Tortolita’s

[@antoniovivaldo945]

South Tucson is not a suburb!😂 it’s the hood there’s a lot of drugs and crime. I live about 7 minutes away from south tucson

[@TylerChristoher]

Bro I'm from Tucson, proud Tucson, I thought Tucson was tough, it still is tough, but bro I've been staying around 27th Ave and Van Buren, Indian School and the Avenues.... West Phoenix You can't even sit at a bus stop if you're going to work. Every single one someone's hitting a tray, twisting a bowl, or sleeping. Thank God I drive now. Onto greener pastures.

[@SA-Bean-Bean]

Yea anyone actually living here knows better 😂 Just like when they call mesa downtown phoenix nice. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Even chandler is getting the shopping cart crew and blues now

[@tonyvivar1684]

I’ve done extensive research and have been to every area of Tucson for work purposes since 2016. I can tell you in todays market if you want a safe area with a relatively moderate home your looking at around $600,000. I know they claim you can get a lower price area, however be warned! Most areas of Tucson are now experiencing very high crime and homeless people wondering the areas living in alleys and yards. The traffic is completely out of control . Roads are in extreme poor condition. We don’t have enough stores to supply the needs of the current population let alone the growth. Also we are having water and electricity shortage. If your thinking about Oro Valley it’s very nice but is almost completely retired population. They also have very bad traffic, including the Catalina area. Vail is nice area , but the traffic and not enough stores for the current population. Due to the demographics and grid I left . Believe me it’s only going to get worse!

[@MTknitter22]

Yes, these realtors overdo the positive for obvious reasons. Truth is, Tucson is run by open borders believing democrats and the politics is important to know. We lived there in the 70’s and I thank God we enjoyed the city it was then. Old original Old Tucson and movie making going on, traffic not bad, beautiful foothills that were not populated with giant homes. Now because of border, cartels, crime, Tucson prices of 500K up neighborhoods probably only safe places.

[@AZbarbu1]

@@MTknitter22. Huh. Interesting. We moved here from the Bay Area in 2007. We fell in love with Oro Valley after visiting my sister in Saddlebrooke. We hate golfing, but love bicycling , so OV was a natural. I also keep busy as a traveling notary, so I've seen all the areas mentioned. Virtually all the newer area have gone into overdrive with new housing, lots of schools and incredible new restaurants. I have never felt any sense of threat in my travels around the area. Now, saying that, there are areas where, clearly, people like their privacy and may have an unsigned house in a rural area. Respect that. We have people from many backgrounds. It's part of the Southwest tradition to be open and respectful to others, which is much of the Southern Arizona charm.

[@Saurles]

I've been saying for years about these suburbs, "please stop tearing up my beautiful desert and putting up all these ugly houses that look the same."
