Well eventually I'd like to move outta the northeast. I have always been attracted to the west, Hawaii would be a dream but I've also thought about Arizona too.
So my question is, how hot does it get? If you live there/been there do/did you enjoy it? After I graduate I think I'll take a trip but this will satisfy my curiosity now.

Arizona is not really that hot, well it is, but in Florida you have humidity, which sucks even more. I was in Arizona for 3 months in summer time, it was like 115 outside and we were fine (just had to drink alot of water) here in florida, if it hits 90 and you go outside your f*cked.

the highest i saw was 140, and i don't think it actually hit it.
i lived in AZ till i was 14 or 15. definately an awesome state n all, but if you want to start a family there you might want to reconsider. no offense meant, just stating facts, but on the Survey for intelligence Arizona came in dead last of the states. The schooling system isn't amazing, that's part of the reason my parents moved. --------------------  |

QUOTE(Jonathan @ Feb 16, 2006 - 12:59 PM) [snapback]394966[/snapback] northeast kicks ass Except for house prices, taxes & winter sure. The education thing I didnt know at all, I also dont know how long I'd live there, and I'm in no way ready for a family. I want a warm state with no snow, basically. I dont like Cali because its a warm NY with more rules and if Arnold can get elected there then I will never live there in fear of who else can be elected. Maybe New Mexico or something. I'd move to Hawaii in a heartbeat if I could afford it, but thats just as expensive as western CT. -------------------- |

If you like dirt, rocks, nongreen plant life, and not going out in the summer...then Arizona is the place for you.
I lived there for 12 years and the only thing positive I'll ever claim about AZ is its people. The people are really nice. You head down to Tempe on a Saturday night with the ASU crowd, say "Hi" to anyone on the street, and 90% of the time someone will hit ya with a friendly "Hi" right back. So thats always good...but I don't think it balances out the all the negatives I eventually got tired of. I like green trees, completely shaded roads from overhanging trees, 78deg constant weather, the beach, entertainment, and being able to surf one day and snowboard the next. So I've always known I was going to move back to So Cal. Actually I'm headed back to AZ this weekend. One of the few good things that AZs environment provides is a lot of good hiking and rock climbing. Gonna be rock climbing the Supersition west peak before it gets too hot. Doing this run in 110+deg weather is not an option.  Not many other places you can find a run like that. Only takes ~4hrs.

I dont have A/C in my car, so I think that alone makes this a no go.
