#3 Most Diverse Places to Live in Cochise County
Current Resident: I don't know who wrote the description for our little town, but clearly, they've never spent much - or any - time here. First, this is one of the most progressive towns I've ever known (and I've lived and traveled all over this country and to many foreign ones as well), certainly the most per capita of any small town west of the Mississippi...e.g., the first in this state - long before the Supreme Court decision - to legalize LGBT unions, over the objections of the state. Yes, Cochise County is overall conservative, but this town is the exact opposite. Second, it could not be considered "suburban" by any stretch because it's not near any urban center. Finally, if you're a friendly person, willing to help your neighbors and your community, and you think you'd enjoy a funky, artsy, friendly little town with beautiful high desert/mountain scenery and the best weather in the country, please feel free to join us.
