My friend is in the Air Force and he lives in Tucson, AZ right now. I know it's not far from Phoenix and he seems to really like it. He's 22 and the University of Arizona is so he has things to do that he would want to. I think ASU is in Tempe though, but I'm not sure how far away it is from Phoenix. I'm like you though, I want to get out of Alabama. There's just nothing here. I was actually thinking of moving out to Tucson when I graduate next year because my friend is out there, but there's also no guarantee that my friend will be there. I don't know enough about the other places, but AZ seems like the best option to me. I know there are plenty of hot girls out in AZ and the party scene doesn't seem too bad from what my friend has said. Good luck wherever you decide to go though man.
