Tucson Arizona is located 60 miles North of the U.S.-Mexico border, and is the seat of Pima County, AZ. It is the second largest city in the state of Arizona, and also home to the University of Arizona. The name of the city derives from the Native American name for the city, meaning 'at the base of the black hill'..
Tucson Real Estate is currently very popular, due in part to the pleasant climate of the area. A large proportion of properties are owned by 'snowbirds' - people who reside in the city during the winter due to the warmer weather. Many new homes for sale are advertized each month, with the eastern part of the city being a prime location. Average property sale values here are higher than those of houses for sale elsewhere in Tucson.
In total there are 193,000 households, housing 500,000 residents.
