The comments about comfort living 24/7 and not dying in obtrusive heat and dust in very bleak dead looking landscape surroundings are so true and spot on. Been to Arizona many times mainly at the Phoenix Proving Grounds in all so called seasons and we have toured the state of Arizona from south to north and west to east RV'ing etc and never again as we have much better choices.
For us, it's always lush green true forests and gorgeous green vegetation and natural pristine navigable lakes and rivers all around and the joy of having true and actual 4 seasons each and every year. Vibrant bright colored leaves in fall and the pure crisp white snow in winter followed by spring with its array such colorful flowers, blooming colorful trees, and the ground with a lush carpet of lush green grass everywhere not just where one can water it.
Next is summer which has months long throngs of constant long weeks terms visitor's license plates from Arizona and the rest of the southern states and southwestern states and guess why? They are escaping the horrible oppressive oven like heat and other issues etc that makes their states unbearable to be outside daytime and most nights too. Can't even shovel that heat away or blow the horrible humidity away in the south either!
The only reason we go down to Florida in January for about 2 months is because we visit several of our family who lives in the state and because my wife has had 19 operations and is full of metal brackets etc and screws and mostly disabled. Sure doesn't want to slip and fall for more operations being required. Besides neither of us can take the heat and we are and always been very outdoor people 12 months a year and detest being cooped up inside in constant A/C while just looking out the windows. Other make their own choices!
BTW, that means that because of so much shade where we prefer to camp or overnight in the forested states with out having hookups, we have to rely on batteries for inverters and generators/alternators for the recharging of the batteries because the sun is usually totally blocked. Under trees and by the water's edge is a way of life and camping! Just in Michigan alone, 51% of the land is forested and there's more than 11,000 natural inland lakes plus over 3,200 miles of shoreline on 4 of the 5 huge Great Lakes with endless real fishing, swimming, water sports, boating, hundreds of beaches, etc for everyone to use and enjoy... NO shortage at all of clean clear water and dense forests and/or public land here!
