Tucson Arizona, a city of about 800,000, is located in southwest Arizona,  about an hour from the U.S. Mexican border.  It is in the sonoran desert and  known for prolific wildlife and year round greenery.  Surrounded by several mountain ranges on all sides, I think it is one of the most beautiful cities I have ever seen.  Along with the sunny weather, people from Tucson are friendly and outgoing.

Although a recent downtown renovation added some interesting things to do for urbanites,  the natural beauty and abundant opportunity for outdoor activity is what most appeals to me.
