Sadly or gladly you are right. We are never going to have BLM riots or liberated zones in Tucson but our streetcar has only a single route. We also don't have "Portlandiers" are a definable demographic. Tucson is a very Hispanic city, intentionally and proudly so. As part of the Gadsden Purchase, it was among the last bits of land added to the continental US and was well settled by Mexican citizens already. That is its culture and "vibe" with a gloss of middle American commercialism.
