University of Arizona Neighborhoods

Situated in Tucson, the second-largest city in Arizona, the University of Arizona is considered an urban setting. Tucson is a great place to live, work, and play. It’s the authentic Southwest at its best. With a vibrant art’s community, burgeoning culinary scene, rich history and cultural opportunities, and plenty of outdoor adventures, there is something for everyone.

Summer days are often hot with low humidity-great for indoor activities like museums, art galleries, and shopping or relaxing indoor or poolside at one of the area’s world-famous spas or resorts. Cool mornings and evenings and long twilights throughout summer are great for cookouts, patio dining, and activities like hiking and horseback riding.
