    Its a quiet little complex. The major crossroads being what and where they are explains some of noise that simply can't be avoided. The condo's layout and square feet is perfect for two and a dog. A small backyard, but not too small to where you can't enjoy backyard activities and keep a dog happy. Privacy is a wonderful thing and management so far seems to respect it. Maintenance does their job efficiently and in a timely matter too

    Renting in Tucson, AZ

In particular, you'll notice a variety of colorful and unique rental homes in the Pueblo architecture style, as well as some rentals with Spanish and Mediterranean architectural influences. Plus, many of Tucson's rental properties are in walkable neighborhoods laid out in a grid system. However, the city's overwhelming heat can make walking around difficult in the summer. Additionally, most rentals don't have lawns in an effort to conserve water, but rather feature cacti and other native plants. Likewise, because Tucson receives so much sun each year, many apartment complexes also feature solar panels. Notably, Tucson's rental prices are very affordable when compared to other major cities of its size, with no shortage of budget-friendly apartment options. There are also many apartment options that cater specifically to students, military personnel and retirees in Tucson.
