Rio Rico is a hidden gem just an hour south of Tucson. This small town with 19,000 residents is the kind of place where you know your neighbors and strangers wave at you on the road. It is a town large enough to offer modern conveniences like schools, shopping, a hardware store, groceries and restaurants, but small enough to avoid the noise and pollution of the big city. The schools here are excellent and cost of living is low, making this an attractive place for young families. With an elevation of 3,600 feet above sea level, the weather here is much cooler than Phoenix or Tucson, making it an ideal for outdoor adventures.

Despite its proximity to the United States-Mexico border, Rio Rico is a safe place to live. Nogales, Arizona (population 20,000) has many more employers and is just nine miles south. You can also park your car on the U.S. side of the border and walk to Nogales, Sonora, Mexico (population 220,000) where you can find endless stores, restaurants, healthcare providers, and entertainment options. If you prefer to stay on the U.S. side of the border, Tucson (population 540,000) is easily accessible from I-19.
