Flagstaff, AZ
Located in one of the most beautiful parts of Arizona, Flagstaff has just over 60,000 residents.
One of the key attractions to this city is that it is home to 2 major observatories, which causes the city to actively take measures to cut light pollution. This gives Flagstaff a view of the night sky that’s unparalleled in a city this size.
The city also features many cultural activities, including an active theater scene; plus, the Northern Arizona University’s presence here keeps the city young and active.
Prescott, AZ
Rich with history, Prescott was at one point the capital of the Arizona Territory. Fortunately, though, the capital was later moved, keeping Prescott from falling to the urban disadvantages of the current capital.
Full of Victorian homes, Prescott has over 800 buildings on the National Register of Historic Places. The courthouse square is beautiful and Prescott hosts a number of cultural activities including the world’s oldest Rodeo.
Prescott has 4 distinct seasons with hot summers and mild winters that see an average of 22 inches of snow per year.
Sedona, AZ
If Flagstaff is beautiful, then Sedona is heaven. With only about 10,000 residents, national forests, rivers, and streams surround this lovely place.
Many artistic events find a home here including the Sedona International Film Festival, Sedona Jazz on the Rocks Festival, and The Sedona Miracle Annual Charity Fundraiser.
If you can bear being a bit of a drive from a larger town, Sedona is the perfect choice for you.
