Note that the Boston metro area would fit *inside* the city limits of

the immediate vicinity, there's NOTHING 'til you get to feenigs!

How can you say that? There's Sells. Phoenix is a little closer to Why
than Tucson but I prefer Tucson for shopping. It seems a little easier
to get around. North 4th also has that funky '60s ambiance.

For a town of 4000 Ajo can fill most run of the mill needs but sooner or
later you need a trip out to the world. After a day of dealing with
Tucson or Phoenix it still is good to get back to the desert.
