About the Area:

Those who think Tucson and the surrounding area in Pima County is nothing but dry desert sand and tumbleweeds are wrong. All the wonders of the Sonoran Desert are here. The vegetation is the most diverse of all North American deserts, and includes the iconic giant saguaro cactus, steep mountainsides dotted with ponderosa pine, aspen, maple, juniper and oak. Residents share the land with exotic gila monsters, desert tortoises, bighorn sheep, prairie dogs and jackrabbits. Not far away are ancient petroglyphs dating back almost 1,000 years.

At an elevation of just under 2,500 feet, the area sees hot summers but temperate winters with some rain but almost no snow. Tucson is surrounded by five mountain ranges. Mt. Lemmon, in the Santa Catalina Mountains is the area’s highest point at 9,710 feet and is the southernmost ski destination in the United States. If there’s one word that best describes Pima County it’s diversity.

Life around Tucson, Arizona:

The Tucson Presidio was part of the 1854 Gadsden Purchase under which the U.S. purchased land from Mexico. Arizona became a separate U.S. territory in 1863 and a state in 1912. But the Tucson area’s history goes back much further. It is one of the earliest inhabited areas of the country with Hohokam settlements dating back thousands of years. Members of the Tohono O’odham Nation, descendants of the Hohokam, still inhabit the area. Their name means “Desert People.”

The area also retains the flavor of its past Mexican and Old West “cowboy” heritage with old mining and ghost towns and early mission churches still dotting the landscape. Today, “guest ranches” offer visitors a chance to experience those early days in a more comfortable modern setting.

The arts, culture and education are alive and thriving in Tucson. There are exceptional museums ranging from the Museum of Contemporary Art to the Tucson Children’s Museum, a vibrant music and performing arts scene, plus art galleries and shopping experiences for every taste. Founded in 1885, the University of Arizona in Tucson was the first university in the Arizona Territory and offers degrees from 19 separate colleges and schools.
