Living in Arizona is quite a unique experience because of the vastness that the state offers. From the Sonoran Desert in the south to the high country in the north all the way up towards the Four Corners east and the Grand Canyon in the west. Known as the Grand Canyon state, Arizona is diverse in many ways. The state tree is the Palo Verde, the state cactus is the Saguaro, the state bird is the Cactus wren.

If you are driving somewhere in the state and you see a dust storm heading your way, do not try to drive through it. Get as far as you can off the road and turn your lights off. Just stay there until the storm passes over you. It only takes a few minutes generally. After the dust passes over you, be prepared for a lot of rain!

I was born here in 1951. Yep, I'm 70. Been all over the world, wound up back here. Arizona has low desert, high desert, forest, snow, above the tree line, Flats, ravines, rivers, lakes and one big canyon. We have great old west and mining towns. 1/3 rd of Teddy's Rough Riders came from here. Lots of old mines and a few caves too. Everything. If you are new to the south west, try Tucson first. Even Paul McCartney bought a home there. Home of Linda Ronstat too. People come and people go, but I'm still here. I like it.

My gut has been telling me to move to Arizona since I was in elementary school. I always remember drinking Arizona Iced Tea in those big-ass cans in the real early 90's telling my buddies "I'm gonna move to Arizona one day" and them looking at me like I was nuts. My favorite sports team growing up was the Phoenix Suns. Native American culture, wisdom, art, and way of life has always drawn me in and I really enjoy it. My zodiac is the scorpion. I feel I will live better in that part of the country due to heart conditions that I've developed over the past two years. I can go on and on. All I'm saying is "I cannot wait to finally leave Boston and this way of life that I know oh so well behind in the dust.

Really! Get an air purifier! I was born and raised here, trust me, those dust storms can kick up some random stuff in the air. One summer I had really bad hives right after a bad dust storm. Also it's just really dusty here. Change your filters often.

My wife and are are planning a late 2023 move from NY. We are leaving this life behind and embracing the AZ life. Your videos have been more than helpful. Thank you.

I moved here from the corrupt state of Illinois. Love living in Arizona and agree with others, do not come here and expect to change it to where you came from!!

Australian here. Never been to America before but Arizona looks really beautiful. Really love the look of the desert. Hope i will be able to visit at least once in my lifetime.

I was born in Arizona and have lived here most of my life. It can get very hot here and people need to understand that and use caution. Arizona is a diverse and wonderful state.

I'm a retired trucker since April of 2020. My plan is to spent my next winter in Quartzsite.
You sir are so very informative concerning the state of Arizona. I thank you! You're the best!

I'm coming from Birmingham Alabama and my wife said, "I believe we're going to be in for quite the culture shock"...This video just solidified her statement 😂

Took a quick trip there just last week by plane to check places out. After watching some of your videos. I drove to Glendale, Peoria, Mesa, Gilbert, Mesa, Tempe, Scottsdale.. I really like Gilbert the best. But I got to see stuff I hadn't seen before. The people are very nice and friendly. Love Arizona.

I’d like to add that an AZ law allows a person to break your car windows if you’ve left a child or pet in your vehicle.
You’d be surprised how many ppl leave their kids in their car once home. They die. Usually families with lots of kids.

Newbies need to know that 27th Ave & Indian school rd in Phoenix is a beautiful area. Great for walks at night!

I was born and raised in Michigan and I went to Arizona for the first time and I honestly loved it and I will be moving there this year.

[satanspy]

i hate clouds and grey skies and rain i want most days if not every day to be a bright clear sunny day thats why im moving to Az.

I really love the diverse culture to indulge, from the very strong Mexican culture and the very influential American Spirit of the Wild West, to the powerful history of the Native American tribes that first lived there, AZ has been very good to me and I can't wait to carefully explore this wonderful state. Just beautiful overall, AZ makes me miss home a lot because there are no nice beaches but it's the most beautiful state I've seen apart from AK❤️

We just got here, my husband wants to stay. I like it here, People are so nice. It blows me away. We're in Quartzsite. Even the people at the Post Office are friendly. I've heard nothing but bad about Arizona all my life. But I find it to be just the opposite.
This nice dry air has done wonders for my COPD, I haven't had to use my inhalers once. Thank you for your video. God bless you and yours💖💖✝✝🏜🏜🙏🏻🙏🏻

I'm drinking a strawberry Liquid I.V. right now! I thought it was funny that was what you started off with.

I'm in Southern California, but I'm leaving for Arizona because I don't like what California has become.
