I am a 3rd generation Arizonan and have lived near Tucson as my father worked for Magma Copper. I worked there for 4 years after graduation. I had a lot of family that worked at Inspiration way back and a nephew who works at Pinto Valley. I have a lot of family who live there and someday, I will probably move there myself. I am retired and currently live in Pinetop/Lakeside. We love fishing and Roosevelt Lake is close to Globe! It makes a great place to fish year round. Thanks for making this video and I enjoy all your videos of Arizona!

I grew up in Globe and moved to Illinois for 5 years in the late 70's for work. I moved back to Arizona ( Phoenix ) 43 years ago bringing along ( somewhat reluctantly ) my new Illinois born wife. She fell in love with the state and after a short period of adjustment swore she would never live anywhere else. As an aside, if you manage to realize your dream, it's almost certain that a lot of your new Arizona neighbors are from the Upper Midwest. Good luck to you.

This is a great channel to subscribe to, and listen to, if you want to expand your knowledge about Arizona!

We have been traveling Arizona and staying in differing locations about the State. The goal has been to find an area that would be a good fit for us in Winter. Community is an important metric that Globe/Miami does not seem to have much of. We like the terrain around there and the lack of traffic and enjoyed our 2 week stay, traveling up into the mountains on 288 to Young. Just beautiful, and do enjoy the History which there is much of in this area.

Avoid globe glob a dump

My Grandfather was a boilermaker at Inspiration Copper Co. in Miami. I loved spending my Summers in Globe/ Miami area in the 60/70s. It was a long drive from West Virginia. A lot of very good memories.

I loved living in Globe. My twins started high school there and my youngest started kindergarten. It was a great place to live, work and raise a family as a single mom. I have a brother who lives there and loves it too. Who knows, maybe one day I'll move back.

moved here 3 years ago now (Cecilie in the vid was actually our realtor) and LOVE IT. wouldnt think of moving anywhere else

Globe also has some of the best Mexican food in AZ.

the best thing about driving through Globe / Miami is grabbing 10 Burger House green chili burros for the freezer

Wow so many history , nicee video

I've been through Globe a couple of times. The region around Globe and Superior are beautiful but at the same time somewhat depressing. Just looked impoverished and not a lot goin on. I would imagine most locals would say "Globe is a great place to leave."

The "depressing" part will vanish away quickly, if there is another copper mining boom here, which I hope will happen sooner than later.

Globe is in Gila county, and qualifies as a future "penturbian" town. I read Dr. Jack Lesinger's book "penturbia" before I moved to Arizona, mkore than 25 years ago. Penturbia refers to the beginnings of the fifth wave of population migratory patterns in the USA, suburbia was the fourth wave of this migratory pattern, which started post WW2, beginning in the later 1940's. I have heard (looking for documentation), that Globe is slated to be as one of the few Arizona towns, that is slated to become a "smart city". Someone here may have more info , about this if it is true. Great Vlog, really liked the interviews with the local people.

I had been thinking so. Views are too good to be ignored

We run paranormal events in various historic site like the 1910 Gila Jail and the area is very active

I agree, they could have put mics on the interviewees instead of using the mic on the camera.

10:40 What is the original name of the Salado people? Because Salado is Spanish for Salty and in 13th century i doubt the natives knew any Spanish at all. Spain didnt reach Arizona until the early 1500s.

That's right! You know your history! In 1492 an edict was given to expel all of the jews from Spain. Many migrated to here, which was Mexican territory until the war with Santa Ana, and the sale of the land to be apart of the USA territory.

I think it would have worse growing pains than what we're experiencing in Maricopa.

It’s far better than any big city and that information is skewed and not correct. Much more good than bad.

Don’t go jumping off high structures. You might “pass away” upon impact.

A prisoner tried to "EX-scape" did he? Twice you said it. It's escape. No "ex"...

Don't think so

Deceiving video. Only filmed a couple nice locations. Look at the crime rate for Globe Miami and the area around the two filmed locations.

LOL i couldn't wait to escape Globe awful 🤣 place Nothing unique it is minning dump surrounded by other towns aka mining dumps people leave bc of cancer! I cant believe people are making videos of my teenage nightmare LOL. Do yourself a favor move to Scottsdale AZ much nicer.

Globe is a dump. Just my opinion.
