Date: June 23rd, 2020 8:25 PM Author: transparent rough-skinned rigor honestly albq is kind of cool. it has an "old town" with cool shops, decent chicks, good food and the fall/spring weather is great there. i personally hate arizona except to visit the parks.

Date: June 23rd, 2020 8:35 PM Author: transparent rough-skinned rigor i've been to phx, flagstaff and random towns along 66. it just feels like a hotter, less topological variations, more hispanic utah. i love the land of utah but not the people/culture so much.
i loved santa fe a lot. in comparison abq isn't nearly as nice but i don't think anywhere in arizona beats abq. |

|
Date: June 23rd, 2020 8:43 PM Author: zombie-like address IMO new mexico is less metropolitan, but more hip, if that makes sense. just generally a more chill---or should i say chile!---vibe. that said i've never been to tucson, hence this thread.

Date: June 23rd, 2020 8:50 PM Author: transparent rough-skinned rigor i think NM's climate is slightly better, the people are a wash, but it's far less crowded and i just think an overall better state to reside. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4568511&forum_id=2#40482510) |
|
Date: June 23rd, 2020 8:50 PM Author: Pontificating State Albuquerque is more run down, has more crime, has a worse economy, has those fucking Kokopelli things everywhere, and is just generally worse. The nice areas of Phoenix and its suburbs are much nicer than anything Albuquerque has. I'm sure Albuquerque is cheaper, though. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4568511&forum_id=2#40482509) |
|
Date: June 23rd, 2020 8:52 PM Author: transparent rough-skinned rigor it's not as kokopelli as santa fe. sf doesn't have any buildings over 3 stories and everything has that reddish adobe roofs.
abq isn't sf but it's certainly better than say las cruces.
you like old town or has it gone to shit in the last decade? |

|
Date: June 23rd, 2020 8:55 PM Author: transparent rough-skinned rigor if you're not in a place off the strip it just feels like hours of sprawling suburbs. it's a place to visit but living there and raising a family would be garbage.
and if i'm going to live in vegas, i might as well just go a little more west to la. |
