What are the best places to live in Tucson?

My husband and I have wanted to live in Tucson for quite some time—and with a baby on the way, we want to make the move before she’s born. What are some of the best areas to live in?

Congratulations on your baby! There are lots of changes in store, and moving to
Tucson
will be a good one. The best places to live in Tucson are Dunbar Spring, Civano, Downtown Tucson, Sam Hughes, and Armory Park.
Here are some details about each of them:
  • Dunbar Spring: A historic neighborhood with a deep cultural history. It’s the perfect area for those looking to entrench themselves in everything Tucson offers, build a community with neighbors, and support local businesses.
  • Civano: With brightly colored homes and tree-lined streets, Civano offers residents stunning mountain views with plenty of outdoor activities. Because it’s a bit of a hike from downtown, it tends to be quieter.
  • Downtown Tucson: For those looking to dive headfirst into the hustle and bustle of Tucson, the downtown core is perfect. There’s ample dining, shopping, and museums, all within walking distance, making it the ideal sport for young professionals seeking daily adventure.
  • Sam Hughes: A quiet ​​neighborhood that attracts more students; it’s known for brewpubs and outdoor spaces, making it the perfect spot for joggers and cyclers or anyone who loves the outdoors.
  • Armory Park: Just south of downtown Tucson, Armory Park is a distinctive residential neighborhood and an excellent area for those wanting to be close to Central Tucson while still enjoying the benefits of a relaxed suburban environment.
