Catalina Foothills
- mountain setting
- hiking access
Wikipedia describes the Catalina Foothills as a suburban community in the foothills of the Santa Catalina Mountains, just north of the city limits. It says the area is generally defined as north of River Road, east of Oracle Road and west of Sabino Creek, and mentions Sabino Canyon among the nearby points of interest.
Oro Valley
- hiking
- suburban
Wikipedia lists Oro Valley as a major incorporated suburb northwest of Tucson, in the western foothills of the Santa Catalina Mountains. Nearby, Wikivoyage places Catalina State Park on the northwestern edge of the Santa Catalina Mountains, with trails for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding and opportunities for birdwatching.
Getting around Tucson
Tucson International Airport is on the far southern end of the city, according to Wikivoyage. The Tucson Airport Authority says Sun Tran, the region's public transit system, makes regular stops at the airport, with the bus stop in front of the main terminal. Wikivoyage also notes that some visitors fly into Phoenix Sky Harbor and then take a shuttle or drive to Tucson.
The Sun Link Streetcar, part of the Sun Tran system, links the University of Arizona with Fourth Avenue, Downtown and the west-end district, and Wikivoyage says it is useful for moving between the university and Fourth Avenue nightlife. Wikivoyage describes Tucson as bike-friendly, with an extensive system of routes and paths, and Wikipedia says the Loop shared-use path system encircles the city, mostly along washes and well away from traffic. Because most east-west and east-side traffic uses surface streets, Wikivoyage notes that journeys can be slow during the workday and even slower during rainstorms.
Living in Tucson for longer
Wikipedia says Tucson has many parks, including the Tucson Botanical Gardens, Tohono Chul Park and Reid Park Zoo, and it points to Saguaro National Park and Sabino Canyon nearby. The Loop path system suits regular walking, running or cycling away from traffic.
Wikipedia says Tucson is well known for Sonoran-style Mexican food. Visit Tucson describes the city as lying close to the US-Mexico border, with Mexican roots running through language, food, art and celebration. Wikivoyage lists Fourth Avenue, University Avenue and Downtown as the three areas for nightlife, all within walking distance of each other.
When to visit Tucson
Wikivoyage describes a hot desert climate with a long, hot summer and a mild winter, and says fall and spring tend to be sunny and dry. Early summer is dry, and by mid-summer the monsoon brings higher humidity, cloudy skies and frequent thunderstorms. The monsoon season officially starts in mid-June, though Wikivoyage says the actual arrival of storms varies from year to year. Snow is rare in the city but quite common in the Santa Catalina Mountains.
Wikivoyage lists the Tucson Gem & Mineral Show as a two-week winter event across many sites around town, and the Fiesta de los Vaqueros rodeo in mid-February. It also lists Tucson Modernism Week, a festival of mid-century modern architecture and design, in October, and the All Souls Procession, based on the Day of the Dead, in November.
The city covers a large area, so the choice of district matters: the compact Downtown and university corridor linked by streetcar, the foothill suburbs to the north, or the town of Oro Valley beyond the city limits. Tucson is also a UNESCO City of Gastronomy, according to Wikipedia. For background on the format, see what is an aparthotel; the USA hub covers other Southwestern options, including Phoenix.
