I wouldn't consider anything in Arizona, Nevada, and Utah. Water is a big problem for all of them. Arizona and Nevada are front and center to the crisis facing the Lower Colorado Water Basin. Municipalities in both states are already initiating their crisis plans for conserving water. Utah faces an ecological timebomb as the Great Salt Lake dries out and exposes arsenic in the soil and the dust becomes toxic. The SW is really hurting right now and more and more people keep moving here putting even more pressure on resources we are short on. It also doesn't help that Saudi Arabia is draining our aquafers to grow alfalfa. The southwest is seriously ####ed.
