Tucson Ranks Top Place for Simple Living by AARP

USA Today printed an article that was titled:
Tucson is the top go-to place for simpler living, says AARP

Demographers used statistics from the U.S. Census Bureau and other sources to evaluate towns and cities on a variety of criteria. They looked at places with a low cost of living and that offered a wide range of activities. They looked for affordability, low rates of unemployment and the ability to walk and bike to work along with other “outdoor amenities” such as farmers markets and hiking. They also looked at low rates of suicide, crime, divorce, depression and other factors that play into how stressed people feel living there. Once they came up with 25 the editors at the magazine picked the top cities in different areas of the country to make sure that every region was represented. Tucson made the top!
