You're referring to this?:

"Emissions Control Areas
If your registration renewal notice reads "No Emissions Test Required," it is based on your address on file and your vehicle year. However, an emissions test may still be required if your vehicle is used to commute into an Air Quality Control area (including greater metro Phoenix and Tucson)."

I'm surprised no one is heading to Ely Nevada to "get away from it all on the cheap "..

Prescott summers are still very warm, I wouldn't call the rents "cheap"

Show Low is getting expensive as well and they get almost as much snow as Flagstaff

Flagstaff? Really? Poverty with a view? Rents are stupid expensive with NAU there.

Course if the OP is coming from Cali then anything less than $2k could be considered "Cheap"

I hear Holbrook is an up and coming place. Or maybe try Sierra Vista? Oro Valley (Tucson)?

Of course, this post begs the question...why AZ? If the OP has never been here or explored the state...just trying to get out of CA like everyone else?

I agree, why Arizona? There are plenty of other good options worth exploring and checking out. The cost is getting stupid expensive to live in "The Furnance State"
