We have our monsoon season in July and into August. Humidity goes up. Desert areas are going to be 100+ in the summers but much nicer in the winters. We have lots of winter snowbirds from everywhere cold come here. Personally, I think 70 is cold and I like it when it's hot. Women wear less! Phoenix area tends to be a little hotter than Tucson in the summer. If you're into golf, there's a lot to choose from. In the summer, a lot of us go to Pinetop to get out of the heat.
The Phoenix Cobra guys are a great group and do quite a lot together. The Tucson group is smaller and a little more lax but we do get together for a number of drives/get togethers.
If you're looking for a newer area to retire, I would suggest Dove Mountain in Marana. It's a beautiful area, out of Tucson traffic but close enough to drive as needed.
