  2. own horses or are looking for a ranch/farm/homestead life.

Neighborhoods in Vail

Most of the neighborhoods in Vail are cookie-cutter style new developments, which range in construction date from the early 1980s to 2021. That said, you can also find ranches, farms, and horse property on acreage at good prices in this area.

Although not in Vail proper, Rita Ranch, Civano, Sierra Morado, and Mesquite Ranch are other popular neighborhoods in the southeast Tucson area.

Most of the neighborhoods in Vail have Homeowners Associations (HOAs) due to the close proximity of the houses. HOAs typically preside over issues like weeds, illegally parked vehicles, visible trash cans, exterior paint colors, etc.

* NOTE: If you want to buy a home in Vail or Tucson, we recommend REALTOR Tim Sheaffer. Call or text him to see available properties: 520-305-9005. Even if you want to buy/build a brand new house, it's wise to bring a realtor with you on your 1st visit to see the model homes so that you have someone to negotiate on your behalf.

Homes/Architecture in Vail

Most of the homes in Vail are single or dual story homes between 1200-2800 square feet. You'll see miles upon miles of houses in the exact same design and colors with matching landscaping.

The Vail School District is known for innovation and high standards. Along with its traditional schools, Vail offers a blended learning center, Vail Digital Learning, and an Early College program.

Restaurants in Vail

The restaurant scene in Vail is pretty dismal (it's true). The options tend to be standard fast food or chain fare: Arby's, Bruegger's, Carl's Jr., Dairy Queen, Freddy's, McDonalds, Nico's, Jerry Bob's, Panda Express, Pizza Hut, Subway, and Taco Bell.

Arizona Pizza Company, Montgomery's Grill & Saloon, and Argenziano's are three locally-owned, sit-down restaurants. If you go to Argenziano's, try the calzones! Mmmm.

Grocery Stores in Vail

Vail boasts one of the best Fry's Food & Drug grocery stores in Southern Arizona. It's expansive and has a bountiful produce section, plus sushi, a deli, a bakery, and a pharmacy.

There is also a Safeway in Del Lago - with a fuel center, full-service Starbuck, juice bar, and premier produce department.

A Walmart Supercenter can also be found at Houghton and Mary Ann Cleveland Way.

Coffee in Vail

The non-chain coffeehouses in this area are Tay's Brew House (in Corona de Tucson), Viva Coffee House (in Rita Ranch), and Vail Coffee Stop (a coffee truck). Starbucks, Dunkin', Brueggers, and Dutch Bros can also be found in this area.

Parks in Vail

Because Vail is unincorporated land in Pima County, it does not have the same advantages as towns and cities do in terms of development. This shows in its lack of parks, libraries, and community spaces.

Some (but not all) of the neighborhoods do have small community parks, but they do not offer the same amenities or appeal as larger city and regional parks.

The closest city park is Purple Heart Park in Rita Ranch, which has a playground, a dog park, a swimming pool, and a skate park.

***Exciting news! Pima County has begun development on a 274-acre Esmond Station Regional Park.

Libraries in Vail

There are currently no libraries in Vail, but one is in the works! The W. Anne Gibson-Esmond Station Library is planned, but an opening dates has not yet been released.

Most people in Vail currently frequent the Miller-Golf Links Library, which is between 15-35 minutes away (depending on where you live in Vail).

Other Shopping

Stores you won't find in Vail include Target, Trader Joe's, Sprouts, Nordstrom, Crate & Barrel, Kate Spade, Pottery Barn, and high-end retailers.

The nearest Costco is about twenty minutes away.

Things to Do With Kids in Vail, Arizona

Because the homes tend to be affordable and the school district has such a sparkling reputation, Vail attracts plenty of young and new families! On most streets, you will find lots of children of various ages.

Vail School District events tend to be the 'hub' of community life in Vail - offering sports, extracurricular activities, carnivals, and family events.

You won't find a hot culture scene in Vail (no museums, libraries, bookstores, professional theatre, etc), but there are children's activities available if you look for them: Ballet Rincon, Springs Gymnastics, Vail Soccer Club, to name a few. You and your family may also enjoy hiking at the Gabe Zimmerman Davidson Canyon Trailhead at Cienega creek.

Today’s topic: “Over 40? 10 best places to meet women!” If you are over the age of 40 (or perhaps even over the age of 50) and you happen to be single then finding a quality woman to date can be quite a challenge!

You see all of your friends who are married, some of them happily, some of them not, and you think to yourself that there must be a woman out there for you. Trust me when I say this… there is!!

Quick Tip: If you are seriously looking to meet and date a woman over the age of 40 then the best and most respected dating site is OurTime.com ! It’s time to get back into the dating scene… and OurTime.com is the most trusted dating platform for those of us over 40!!

The 10 Best Places to Meet Women Over the Age of 40!

Back in your mid to late 20s it was fairly easy to go out with your buddies, drink some beers and chase some skirts.

But when you get into your 30s the availability of women, single quality women, seem to almost disappear.

Most of the women that you would desire to have a long-term relationship with are either in a serious relationship, married with kids or have gained an awful lot of weight and now are thus unappealing.

By the time you get into your 40s the selection of attractive, sexy, intelligent and high quality women to date becomes rather small.

And by the time you reach 50, the pool is so small that most older men desire to meet women much younger than themselves… or just give up.

Of course this is a topic for another day.

Probably the number one question I am often asked via email on our website at www.successwithwomen.info is:

Q: I am over the age of 40! Where can I go to meet attractive quality women to date?

Well, you are in luck!! Meeting women in your 40s and 50s is very different than meeting women when you are in your 20s.

And in case you’re wondering I am going to share with you the 10 best places to meet eligible, attractive quality woman that I think you would be very happy to date and have a long-term relationship with.

And I want you to know, going to bars and nightclubs is not one of them!

So get that out of your head!! No bars and nightclubs anymore for you. You are after quality attractive women who have careers, can sustain a quality relationship and will make you a priority in their lives.

But before going to the top 10 places to meet high quality women to date if you are over the age of 40+ let’s take a look at the top three places not to meet women. Or should I say not to meet quality women.

Number One: bars and nightclubs. These places are for the barflies and the attention whores. If you are man over the age of 40 who has a career and desires to meet someone to have a long-term relationship with this could be the worst place to meet a quality partner.

Stay away from these places. What you end up meeting are women who are constantly on the prowl to meet new men all the time.

Not the type of woman you are seeking at this stage in your life.

Number Two: online dating.While some people have success with online dating the vast majority view their experiences with these type of websites with a jaundiced eye.

Not all, but many of the women who enroll on websites like match.com are serial daters. They meet one guy one night; and then the next day they are striving to meet another guy for lunch.

All one needs to do is a look at the available women on these websites and then go back six months and you will see the very same women still active seeking that one special man.

It’s like an addiction.

These women are caught up in the excitement of meeting someone new…

and each and every man they meet feeds their high. In the end no man is ever good enough and they sit and wonder why they are forever lonely without a long-term boyfriend.

My advice: stay away from online dating websites!

Number Three: on the street. If you spent any time watching videos of pick up artists who proposition women on the street asking for their phone numbers then probably you come away with the fact that this is totally retarded.

Dating Over 40 In Vail Arizona Zillow

This is a very juvenile way to approach attractive, successful women.

Most of these pickup artist type of activities are geared for those under the age of 20 and are not suited for the professional man seeking to meet a very high quality woman for a long-term relationship.

So now we know the three worst places to meet women to date and get into long-term relationships with.

Next let’s look at the top 10 places where a professional man over the age of 40 can meet the type of woman he truly desires to spend time with.

The women at each of these venues listed below will be educated, motivated and seeking a high quality man like yourself.

More than likely, you will never see these women at a nightclub or perusing the bars late on a Friday night.

Quick Tip: Perhaps you are looking for something more illicit and exciting? If so, then you need to explore all the options only available on AdultFriendFinder.com. Needing excitement and sensuality in your life? This is the place to start your quest!!

So let’s cut to the chase and get to our list of 10 best places for the man over the age of 40 to meet high quality attractive women.

Number One: professional networking events.

If your goal is to meet a good quality partner who is focused on a career and is highly educated there is no better place than professional networking events to meet such a woman.

While many of the women who attend these professional networking events will be married or attached to another man there still will be numerous women who will be single and eager to meet a man such as yourself.

If you are an accountant, an engineer or a sales professional there are numerous professional networking events geared for your fellow colleagues that you can attend.

The trick to find the single women at such events is to simply look at their ring finger.

No ring means no committed relationship. It’s that simple.

All you need to do is to go online and Google upcoming networking events for your local area and then its just a matter of signing up and attending.

More than likely there will be at least one networking event per month that you can check out. Bring a friend if you need a wing man or go solo if you have confidence to do so.

Quick Tip: If you are serious about meeting and hooking up with married women then the EASIEST option is AshleyMadison.com !! There is simply no other way to discretely meet these elusive women who are seeking a man like YOU!!
Number Two: non-profit galas.

I have attended many nonprofit galas over the years. Whether it be for the Heart Foundation or the local YMCA nonprofits seem to always have a large annual fundraising event where good food, good music in fellowship occur.

Trust me when I say this, there is no better place to find upscale beautiful women!

These nonprofit galas are usually attended by successful people. You will not run into the typical barfly chick or welfare mother at such an event.

Most, if not all the women who attend nonprofit galas are very well-educated, very career driven and very high quality relationship oriented women.

This would be my number one place to seek out a partner in life who has ambition and an interest in long term relationships.

When you attend a nonprofit gala the single women are very easy to spot. Usually they come in a group of three or four and sit together at the same table enjoying themselves.

It’s just a matter of you stepping up to the plate and stopping by the table and introduce yourself to the group of ladies. Nothing could be easier when it comes to meeting women!

Number Three: professional training seminars.

If you are over the age of 40 and you are a business professional then more than likely you need ongoing training to keep your skills up-to-date.

There are always seminars being offered at your local hotels for all types of professional occupations.

I was in the medical field for quite a while and met one of my girlfriends at such a professional training venue.

What’s nice about meeting attractive women at professional training seminars is that the women who attend these events will be professional and very well educated;

…much like yourself!

When they go to such events they will not be looking to meet a man to date, thus, they’ll be more open to conversation with a fellow colleague which gives you a unique opportunity to get to know them…

…and position yourself to eventually ask for a phone number or another way of contacting them without making them feel threatened.

Dating over 40 in vail arizona weather
Number Four: evening college classes.

This is a no-brainer! Just about every city and town in the United States has a local community college or university that offers weekend and evening classes.

Most of these classes that are offered will be for degree programs. However, some of these classes will be offered as interest-based classes, such as:

bartending 101, bookkeeping for the small business owner, French cooking, stargazing for the non-astrologer etc. etc. etc.

Instead of going to your local nightclub…

…or bar attending a couple classes like these during the course of the week will give you ample opportunity to meet other people with similar interest to yours.

And of course, many of these people you will meet will be female!

I can still remember taking a French language class in the evenings during the summer and by the end of the session I had dated two ladies from this French language class.

Dating over 40 in vail arizona zillow
Number Five: nonprofit volunteering.

With the economy going in the direction it’s going many nonprofit organizations are even more so seeking volunteers to augment their staff.

Quite often these volunteer opportunities result in long term relationships with these nonprofit organizations for the volunteer.

By volunteering it gives you an opportunity to get back to your community while at the same time being introduced to new group of people you may have never met before.

This includes single women who truly care about the mission of the nonprofit they are volunteering at!

All you need to do is look at all the nonprofit organizations in your immediate area and determine which one, two or three will be a good fit for you and your interests.

Once you determine these nonprofit organizations you have an interest in it’s just a matter of contacting their respective volunteer offices and signing up as a volunteer.

I know a guy who is a chiropractor and he met his wife through volunteering at a nonprofit that catered to disadvantaged kids.

Needless to say they have been married now for well over six years and both still continue to volunteer at that same nonprofit where they met.

Number Six: fraternal organizations.

Most of us at some point in our careers join a fraternal organization as a way to network with other business professionals. Such organizations include your local Chamber of Commerce, the Lions Club and the Rotary Club.

Such fraternal organizations offer fellowship and a way to serve your local community while at the same time giving you networking opportunities to help grow your business and/or career.

The women who join fraternal organizations are almost always very career driven and successful.

They will not be the type who go out nightclubbing every night or stay home watching TV on the couch.

These women are driven and interesting to be around. Translation: these are the type of women you want to meet and hopefully get an opportunity to date.

Number Seven: your workplace.

Despite the fact that most employers frown on coworkers dating, probably the easiest place to meet and become acquainted with attractive career driven successful women is within your workplace.

Here you spend anywhere from 6 to 10 hours a day working alongside women, some of them single, which provides a very unique opportunity to establish trust, friendship and potentially emotional feelings.

Unlike the bar scene or other traditional places to meet the person of the opposite sex the work place gives you unfettered access to female coworkers whom you may have an emotional interest in for 8 hours a day or more.

Dating Over 40 In Vail Arizona Weather

This is such a great potential opportunity that it would be very foolish to pass this up if by chance there is a woman with whom you work with you may have an interest in.

In order to keep any relationship that may develop with a fellow coworker secret you may need to be somewhat covert in any efforts to date a fellow coworker.

Of course this is much easier said than done and many coworkers who eventually become couples face the difficulty of potentially losing their job if the company policy dictates there is no dating amongst coworkers.

Having said that, I think there is no better place to meet high quality women that you have an opportunity to get to know well in advance before asking them out on a date.

Quick Tip: If you are seriously looking to meet and date a woman over the age of 40 then the best and most respected dating site is OurTime.com ! It’s time to get back into the dating scene… and OurTime.com is the most trusted dating platform for those of us over 40!!

Number Eight: it’s just lunch.

Go ahead and Google the term “it’s just lunch”.

What comes up will be an organization in your area that puts two single people together with mutual interests in a lunch setting for the first initial point of contact.

It gives these two single people an opportunity to meet each other, enjoy a new restaurant they may have never experienced before and to see if there’s any chemistry between them.

Having used “it’s just lunch” myself I found it a good opportunity to meet an attractive woman who was taking an aggressive stand in finding a good partner to date.

All the women I met through it’s just lunch were very high quality in regards to education, career and overall physical appeal.

The cost may be something that will dissuade you initially; but if you look at it like I did, like it is an investment in your future, it’s just lunch could be a preferable way to meet an attractive lady for a future relationship.

Updated 10/21/2018.

Number Nine: international matchmaking venues.

Dating Over 40 In Vail Arizona Real Estate

I can guarantee you are thinking that international matchmaking companies are silly.

So did I… until a friend convinced me to check out a matchmaking company that catered to American men and Japanese women.

The price was rather expensive; but again, like mentioned above, one must look at a venue like this as an investment.

Just to give you a sense of how my experience went using a matchmaking company to meet my wife, I was personally introduced to approximately 16 different women over a period of three months.

All but one of the women were truly beautiful. All of them had varying levels of education and job experiences.

When I eventually selected my wife to be out of this pool of 16 women I realized that using such a service really had its unique advantages.

If you are a man over the age of 40 and you want to meet a high quality woman this would be my number one choice and recommendation for you.

Quick Tip: Looking for that sexy Asian girl to date and get serious with? If so, then there is no better place to meet and date Japanese, Filipino and Thai girls than AsiaFriendFinder.com. Having dated many Asian women over the years this is probably the easiest way to meet these exotic, elusive women!
Number 10: golf or tennis leagues.

If you are wanting to date an athletic woman then there is no better place to meet these type of ladies than the golf course or on the tennis court.

I myself have met quite a few women this way and can attest to the fact that all the women I met on the tennis court were very high quality women.

These women were obviously very athletic, very ambitious and very aware of what it takes to establish a quality relationship.

Most women who are athletic and enjoy sporting activities are not the type of woman you would find at nightclubs and pickup joints.

These women will be very health conscience and focused on their futures.

In other words the type of you would want to develop a quality relationship with.

Dating over 40 in vail arizona real estate

So my recommendation is for you to purchase a good quality tennis racket or a set of golf clubs and seek out instruction on how to play tennis or golf.

Almost every city or town has some form of tennis league where group instruction happens on a weekly basis. In all likelihood there will be single ladies participating in these tennis leagues…

…with whom you can strike up a conversation and eventually have the opportunity to get to know them well enough to see if there could be mutual interest for dating.

In closing…

These are my top 10 places to meet women if you are a man over the age of 40 and do not want to waste your time with the nightclub scene.

You are a busy guy with a career and many responsibilities… so make your life a little easier and choose the right woman for you by finding them in places where only quality women tend to congregate.

Any one of the above mentioned places will give you an advantage over the men seeking women in the usual nightclub scene.

If you are desirous in meeting an attractive successful woman then look at the above list and get busy putting yourself out there and interact with those ladies that you will eventually encounter.

It’s all up to you to make the effort to meet the type of woman you truly want to be with. Just pick two or three from the above list and you can’t go wrong.
