Looking for a bigger reason to be partial to the Copper State? How about ten of them? If you want to tout some facts to show off why Arizona is the best state to live in, you’ve come to the right place. Read on!
Authentic Mexican Cuisine
All border states, from the Lone Star State to Cali, have a rich culture that’s infused with elements from our neighboring nation. While you can enjoy some Tex-Mex every now and then, many Arizona dishes have a far more authentic taste, from carne asada to calabacitas to elotes to raspados. Whether sweet or savory, there are taquerias and bakeries that dedicate their work to celebrating Mexican cuisine — especially from Sonora, the part of Mexico just south of us. What does that mean for us? Taco Tuesday is a lot tastier here than in other states.
Perfect Winter Weather
You don’t have to shovel your driveway unless you want to in Arizona. If you choose to live in the mountains, like in Flagstaff, you’ll get your snow. But if your idea of perfect weather includes clear skies and cool desert air, then you can still get your joy from winters in Phoenix or Tucson, where there’s rarely snow at all. If you find yourself vacationing in Phoenix, it is a great idea to take a short drive to some of the surrounding cities and see all the fantastic things this city offers.
