Drink lots and lots of water. Sahuarita/Green Valley has about 45,000 people so it is small and about 35 minutes from downtown Tucson. Don't kill the rattlers but keep your eye out for em.

just remember, its a dry heat. and look into getting a desert cruiser
2 or 4wd, the desert is beautiful and amazine. rockin, sunets & sunrises. a buddy of mine made pretty good money for bringing in snakes for the venom used in anti-venoms.

I plan on leaving the snakes alone....so snake and heat is all i got to look forward to? What are the people like compared to east coast pushy and fast? I know there are lots of opportunity for hiking and camping which I plan on getting into once I get outthere, but then again there is that whole snake issue...

I would like to move to Phoenix or Tuscon personally, but I can only live so far away from work, hence Sahuarita...from what I heard it's only about 30 mins from Tucson, which isn't that bad...

Downtown Tucson is only about 15-20 mins down I-19

I've been through sauhuarita on my way to rio Rico and I think it is really a nice place... Seems more mysterious than where I live outside phoenix.
Snakes can be n issue but would rather retreat than confront you. Sadly its the people who hate them that usually find them..I've been trying to find a Tiger rattlesnake in the wild ever since I moved here five years ago...weak..

I just moved here myself too, the only thing i could really complain about are the drivers (sorry but its hard not to notice) so watch yourself on the road. I had 2 or 3 close calls the first week i was here

why of all places on gods green earth would anyone willingly move to arizona? it is hotter than hell and the people suck here for the most part. i have lived out here for 20 years and hated every minute of it. but no matter how hard i try to leave i end up coming back... its like a bad movie no matter how bad it sucks you can't seem to change the channel

The drivers here are bad because they are all from some other state!

Your best bet to find a tiger is to get out of the city and in a rocky area at night, they are pretty recluse and don't want any part of people...kinda like a coral snake!
