Ever heard of Terlinqua Texas? It’s about 100 miles south of me. Weather about like Tucson, poor soil, and little water. Thousands of land owners most of which probably haven’t been there twice. AZ would be a better bet IMO. Some place like Skull Valley which actually looks pretty nice and much better climate than the humid south or south of me. Far enough away from the drug dealers and off their routes. It’s just west of Prescott.
