Details, details, details - relocating is a real exercise in attention to them. One frequently overlooked (but quickly frustrating) thing is learning where your cell phone will or will not work in a new area.
In the Tucson area, cell coverage is generally pretty good, but given the fact that our metro encompasses over 195 square miles and has mountain ranges at all 4 points of the compass - there are some quirks and dead spots for all of the carriers.
Below are the major carriers who have service in the Tucson Metro Area - click on the picture below your carrier to see how the coverage is in the area you want to live:
If you don't have an address in mind yet - just plug in 1630 E. River Road, Tucson, AZ 85718 - that's my office. At least you'll know how your wireless coverage is when you come to see me!

*Note on ATT Map - at time of posting this blog, their coverage map online was not functioning properly - maybe their coverage is better than their website! |
It may seem a minor detail, but being aware is better than being frustrated - especially in the first few weeks of moving to a new town...plus it might just save you some money when your "Angels-In-Training" think they can pull the old "my phone doesn't work in this town. I want a NEW one!" trick on you.
I love working with clients from out-of-town. It is a special thrill to show them the Tucson that I love and cherish...and guarantee that I and my associates will do everything we can to make your transition as hassle-free as possible.
