| Other than living in the same state as Assfit... Of course, there are literally dozens of reasons not to or even consider moving to Arizona. For some reason though, people keep on coming without even thinking about the potential consequences. Maybe this list will make just one person think twice before making a move which he or she will come to regret every single day. Feel free to add your reasons for not relocating to Arizona below. 10. Traffic Cameras - the Valley is absolutely littered with traffic cameras, whether it be radar cameras or red light cameras or a combination of the two. Driving in Arizona is a disaster as it is, but you constantly got to be on the look out for speed traps, mobile radar vans, or lights that could be moments from going red. How many other states do you know that generate the majority of their revenue from speed traps and poorly timed traffic signals? 9. Overcrowded - there is already far too many people packed into the Valley. Everyone who moves here just adds one more car on the road, more pollution, and increased commute times for everyone. Do you really want to be surrounded by traffic and smog as well? 8. Culture - what culture? The majority of Arizona residents spend their days and nights getting black out drunk. There’s not much else going on. Enough said. 7. The people - liars, thieves, illegals, con-artists, white trash, felons, 30k millionaires, fakes, and everyone else who moved here hoping to blend in. Arizona is filled with a number of low class individuals, and it shows in every aspect of day-to-day life. The people here are generally rude, arrogant, unfriendly, and not even worth dealing with. 6. Weather - temperatures well over 100 degrees for at least 4 months of the year. Is there really any other way to put it? 5. Traffic - not only is the traffic terrible, but Arizona boasts some of the worst drivers in the country. The Valley is so spread out that you are forced to drive anywhere and everywhere. Don’t forget - somewhere around 40% of Arizona’s drivers are uninsured. 4. Schools - Arizona public schools consistently rank just about dead last in every ranking done across the country. These schools are under-funded, over-crowded, and teachers are underpaid. More on Arizona schools later. 3. Crime - the crime in Arizona is continually getting worse and absolutely nothing is being done about it. Don’t forget that pulling over the guy for going 5 miles over the speed limit is more important than catching the real criminals who will rob you at gunpoint or break into your house while you are there. 2. Job Market - everyone always says there are plenty of jobs across the Valley. That is, if you want to work in a call center or sell used cars or work for the fast food industry. There are very few corporate, white-collar positions in the Valley and this will not be changing anytime soon. 1. Economy - let’s face it Arizona’s economy is sinking, and sinking fast. Arizona’s economy was almost solely tied to the real estate market and with that crashing down, what is everyone going to do? The recent housing crash will end up affecting every Valley resident for years to come and then some. Unlike most areas, Arizona has nothing to fall back on and who really knows what will become of the Valley and its people in the coming years. |

| After mentioning assfit, there was really no need to elaborate. |

| If Arizona sucks so bad, then why is our population growing by over 100,000 a year and NY's is not? |

| Illegal immigration! Plus, most mexicans have like 8 kids. |

| I know of at least one solid reason to go to AZ. http://www.azcentral.com/sports/diamondbacks/articles/2008/05/02/20080502dbacks.html |

| They don't count them in census counts. They are only counting legal residents when they state growth in AZ, which is always second to Vegas. We grow by a million people every decade or so, and places like NY,NJ,PA,OH,AL,MI,MN etc are all losing population. |

Lol, this from a guy who's team is barely over .500 |
| Posted by: JW32Hoops May 3 2008, 01:40 PM | ||
Wouldn't that contribute to #9? |
| Posted by: JW32Hoops May 3 2008, 01:41 PM | ||||
That's EXACTLY what I'm sayin...if we got to play the D-Backs in AZ more often, we'd be like .900! |
| Posted by: willpiazza31 May 3 2008, 01:44 PM |
| Look at #2. They all get there and work at McD's or work as S & C coaches. |

Just ribbin ya AZFit. I'm sure Phoenix is a fun town...not sure about the rest of the state, but I haven't spent much time there. Don't get your panties in a bunch, I'm hangin up my e-fighting hat for today. |

Please you guys couldn't even beat the Pirates. |

We have lots of room. Even you realized how much NYC sucks since you moved to SD |
| Posted by: azfittrainer May 3 2008, 01:51 PM | ||
Lol, at least I enjoy my job, I'm not even sure what you do for a living tubby. |
| Posted by: JW32Hoops May 3 2008, 03:17 PM | ||||||
Dude, don't tell me what I realize. NYC is fucking awesome...glad I lived there and would definitely do it again. San Diego is awesome too, but in a different way. Apples and oranges. Tangerines and mangos. |

You're right actually. I much rather be in a gym than in an office.  |

Or else what fruitcake? If it's so great, then why did you leave? |
| Posted by: JW32Hoops May 4 2008, 08:29 PM | ||||||||||
Fruitcake? If it was so good, why did I leave? Are you trying to seriously insult me and bait me into some sort of ghey little e-fight? How about if it was so good, why didn't I marry it? Wow. NYC rules and I'm loving SD so far. I'm very happy and lucky to have lived in both places. |
| Posted by: azfittrainer May 4 2008, 08:42 PM |
| IF NYC was so great, then why did you move to SD? If AZ sucks, then why are more people moving there then NYC, or SD? |
| Posted by: willpiazza31 May 4 2008, 08:44 PM | ||
Duh, cause they didn't read this top 10 list before moving there.  |
| Posted by: azfittrainer May 4 2008, 08:45 PM | ||||
Dude you live in Jersey, a place who's population is declining nearly every year. We have better weather, more jobs, hotter women, and a nicer view. When people start leaving AZ to move to NJ, then you can talk shit. |
| Posted by: willpiazza31 May 4 2008, 08:47 PM |
| Bro, don't even. You read the top 10 list. Arizona sucks. Period. |
| Posted by: azfittrainer May 4 2008, 08:49 PM |
| Please dude, you wish, do you want me to show you the stats, of how many people leave NJ each year. http://www.tempe12.com/ This is whats walking around ASU all day, enough said. |
| Posted by: JW32Hoops May 4 2008, 08:50 PM | ||
I'm not trying to e-fight with you or even say that AZ sucks. I've only driven through, never spent much time there. I moved to SD cuz I've always wanted to check out SoCal. I'm happy I lived a couple years in New York though and feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to experience both. Love SD, but that doesn't mean this will be my final destination either. Relax. |
| Posted by: willpiazza31 May 4 2008, 08:51 PM |
| Doesn't matter... read the top 10 list. Carved in stone... AZ blows. Talk to the hand. |
| Posted by: azfittrainer May 4 2008, 08:52 PM |
| You wish tubby. |
| Posted by: willpiazza31 May 4 2008, 08:53 PM |
| Nope, it's a fact. I found it on the internet. |
| Posted by: Jason2459 May 4 2008, 08:53 PM | ||
That was the first thing I thought of. |

| Where do you live Jason? |

lol, to even compare AZ to NYC is a joke. I've never even been to AZ, but I sure as hell know I'd have a LOT more fun living in NYC than the beaner-infested desert. |
| Posted by: JW32Hoops May 4 2008, 11:11 PM |
Picked it up on the road trip out west... |

Dude, you obviously don't know much about AZ then. There is alot to do here, and unlike NYC, the weather isn't shitty 9 months a year. Again, if where I live sucks so bad, why are people moving here by the thousands each month, and not where you live? |
| Posted by: Will109090 May 5 2008, 01:27 AM |
| Cheap real estate. I'm sure there is a lot to do in AZ, but not even close to as much as to do in NYC. |
| Posted by: azfittrainer May 5 2008, 01:41 AM |
| Not yet, but in 10 years there will be, and the weather wont suck. |
| Posted by: JW32Hoops May 5 2008, 09:19 AM |
| The weather doesn't suck 9 months out of the year in NYC...far from it. The summers, springs and especially fall are beautiful there. Sure, the winter is cold, but I wouldn't even say that "sucks". Kinda nice sometimes. |
| Posted by: azfittrainer May 5 2008, 09:51 AM |
| The Summers are very hot, and humid, and the winters are cold. In Az 9 months of the year the temp is between 65 and 85 degrees and sunny. |

| Anyone else notice assfit's been laying low lately? Something's wrong. He's not starting e-fighs everyday anymore. |

GODDAMN......i miss college  |

| winter isnt bad at all. snowmobiling and snowboarding are awesome. and of course being able to bend down and grab a snowball to pelt someone with anytime you want is pretty nice. |
