What is it like living in Arizona

Question

SOOO.. How is it? I want to live in a state hot year round with little rain.

I am however afraid of snakes and spiders... Is there a ton?

Answer

Lived in Phoenix az my whole 28yrs of life..I've NEVER encountered a snake! Of course they're in the desert and mountains. I'm in the city .. Never seen one.. Weather is perfect winter is beautiful and fresh summer is hotter then hot.. But I wouldn't have it any other way 😌🔥

Answer

I live in Arizona! Never encountered a snake. But scorpions are all over. We get black widows frequently too. I do love the weather. I also love that I can drive two hours and find snow in the winter if I want.

Answer

Born and raised in Arizona!! I absolutely love it however you can never get 100% "use to the heat." I've only ever seen a snake in the Grand Canyon. My parents had a scorpion only once in their house as long as you spray it doesn't get bad. My husband is in the service so unfortunately we will have to leave this great state but we plan on making it out home again once he gets out.

Answer

I've lived in Arizona for a while now. It's awful. Cannot wait to move out of this state! I got bit by a horrible spider after the first couple years of living here, it deteriorated about a quarter size of the skin/muscle on my knee and I had to be hospitalized from it. There is scorpions everywhere, in your house, ALL over your back yard. In Arizona there is no such thing as not getting your house sprayed every month. I haven't seen a ton of snakes, but I've seen a couple while on a morning jog/hike. And it's hot, brutally hot to the point where it's miserable to go outside in the peak of summer. Every plant has spikes on it, and you always have to look before picking something up outside because you never know what can be under it. And let's not forget about the tarantulas...

Answer

I've only been here a couple months and seen a scorpion once. I was sitting on the mountain watching the sunset and I guess it decided to come out from behind the rock it was under. Long story short, I got away from it's territory!😂😂 I've seen more scorpions and snakes back home in Louisiana than I have seen here so I'd say you're safe lol!

Answer

I lived there for 10-11 years. I loved it. I don't like how the schools aren't very diverse but they are high up on the list when it comes to good education. I lived in the suburbs. Nice and quiet. I loved my neighborhood and everyone was nice. But the heat is tooo much. I don't know how I survived! 😂

Answer

My brother lives there. Tucson. He doesn't worry so much about spiders. Snakes out in the desert but he does see scorpions in his house allll the time!!

Answer

I live in az. And unless you are out in the wild where snakes are and live you rarely see them. I love it here! And monsoon season is so beautiful!
