Joe....what interests you ? Do you like to walk, hike, bike, boat, fish, golf, loaf ? Do you like the community atmosphere of an RV Park ? Do you partake in Pot Luck dinners ? Bingo ? Or do you like your privacy and care little for RV Park amenities.
Yuma has something for everyone, from low end RV parks, upscale RV parks, private RV lots with full hookups from about $300/month, to boondocking on BLM land for little or no cost.

There is a free Air show at the Marine Corp Air Base, there is a Custom Car show, there is a Tamale Festival, Lettuce Festival, Senior Games, lots of community based Snowbird activities.

As for crowds, yeah there are a lot of snowbirds here, but the only way to figure out if they are too much for you.....is to give it a try.

Tell me what you are looking for and I'll try to steer you in that direction.

And yes, I am a fulltimer who also owns property in Yuma.

Yuma has been getting larger for years, kinda in a mess some here some there. I spend a lot of time there in the 60's it was small then, but a fair bussiness town for what I sold. The town is worn out now in most parts. The eastern part is fairly new, but a mess also. I have a large interest in one of the banks in Yuma, so I would like the town to do well. But I don't think it is the best place for someone who wants to just lay back and take in the winter sun. One thing I will not do in beat up on someone who think that another town might work also. I'm not on the Cambler or Commerce of either town. I think someone else might be. About ten years back I was thinking of building a new RV park somewhere in Az. So I spend a lot of time in Yuma, Casa Grande, Benson, Tucson, Mesa, Gila Bend. The RV park business topped out a few years back so I have no interest in building one any more plus I'm getting to old to want to.
So do as one wants to, stay in four or five differant places and see what you like.
