Will I get killed, kidnapped, or Victimized by hatred when i move to Tucson Arizona?
I'm a nice, well mannered, respectful, African American. I am going to Tucson Arizona for some work. I am trying to avoid all racial conflict. What are my chances of being victimized by a racist? and what places in Tucson should I stay away from?

As an african american you probably don't "look illegal" like mexican american me. So you should be just fine. Me on the other hand.. ill be staying in Texas where the tar n feathering of the illegal lookin folks is not accepted. good luck bro..

You'll be fine in Tucson. Remember the city of Tucson (and Phoenix) has filed a lawsuit to try to block the new immigration law. There are other parts of the State where you could surely expect to run into white supremecists - Kingman, for example.

Tucson is the ghetto. The best parts of Tucson are the Northwest and Vantanya Canyon areas, which are of course ridiculously expensive. Your next best bet is the East side or my personal affordable favorite is Rita Ranch, yes it's far away, but well worth it. Surprisingly, there are a ton of African Americans here. I live on the East and there are apartments down the way off of Pantano with a majority of African Americans. There are also a large amount of Somali immigrants, which I was told immigrated here because of the tourism industry due to the war ( I don't know how true that is because the economy here is AWFUL!) I haven't noticed any prejudice out here, but I am white I do have half Asian children though and they haven't expirenced anything. The problem is that the city is full of drugs, alcoholics, gangs, home burglaries, and murders. It's a border town so there is a potential for being kidnapped, I don't walk anywhere because my husband will not allow it. I just moved here from the Seattle area (South King County) and this place sucks. Been here five months and we are moving back in the next few months. I can't let my kids go to school here, the school district is one of the worse in the country like the bottom 3 I think. I don't know where you are moving from and I understand jobs are hard to come by but really this place is so so low. I just ran into somebody for the Oregon area and said I was from the NW and just moved here and she got a horrified look on her face and said "WHY!!!???" She moved here six months ago and some person just got murdered in her apartment complex the other day so she is moving away from there. Seriously, the only people that like it here are the ones born and raised here and that's just because they don't know any better. My husband is from here and thought it was tolerable, but really it's not. He's excited about moving away. It was fun when I was visiting here, but to live here is ridonkulous. PS: stay away from the Central area and the West side and Southwest side those are super duper ghetto. Depending on your budget and transpertation abilites shoot for the Eastside or Rita Ranch area. Well wishes and best of luck to you. PSS: the housing market here is going to emplode, but you can get a great deal on a house. For example there's a four bedroom house in Vail (just south of Tucson) on a golf course with a swimming pool in a beautiful area for $250k. First sold for about a half a million dollars (that's just insane to me and if we were staying I would try to buy it).

Aw, no one has answered. I think Sonic hires at 14. Some grocery stores hire baggers at 14, I think. That's all I know of. Almost everywhere is 16. Some stores in malls won't hire until 18.

It depends on your age. Think about safety first. If you're under 15 or 16 you can be preyed on by really awful people if you are alone at someone's home or out alone in public. But setting that aside, start with your own family and any relatives or friends in the area. Ask your parents if they have any big, unpleasant jobs they will pay you to do. When I was young I got paid to paint our entire garage (I had prior experience from helping our family paint the house and fences). When you run out of that kind of work that your parents are happy to have you take off their hands, ask them if you can call some neighbors or local relatives with the same question -- do they have any big or small jobs you can take off their hands to earn some spending money? Just make sure that when someone trusts you with work, you put your best effort into it and do a quality job, reasonably quickly. Don't abuse their trust in any way. That will bring you more jobs in the future. Do you have any skills like handyman jobs you can do? If so, be sure to mention it. Depending on your abilities and what is safe where you live and at your age, maybe you could offer to do jobs like washing windows. To find out how much to charge, you could try calling a few window washers to see what they would charge to do your house Charge less when you're new. Also, if any of your friends or relatives (or their family) owns a small business, there are often opportunities there.

Arizona no longer requires a Work Permit for teenagers seeking employment. YOu only have to provide your employer with proof of citizenship and age. You must be 14, so you qualify. A birth certificate should be fine.

Should I just get a new Battery for my 2005 Hyundai Tucson?
My Tucson has been working perfectly fine since I got it new in 2005. Today I needed a jump at the car wash because my battery died. I talked about it with my dad, and he recommended gently tapping the battery's clamps with a hammer to knock off any gunk that may be blocking the connection...or replacing the battery and starting fresh in that area. Considering that it has been five years, would a new battery be the way to go?

Crystale, If your battery is five years old i would not hesitate to purchase a new one and not get stranded again........Batteries normaly do not last five years so you got more out of yours than most batteries......hope this helps....
2 :
Go to the parts store of your choice, they will test the battery. 5 years off of an original battery is good. You should have no complaints on changing it out. Always keep the terminal connections clean.
3 :
hey sounds like ur battery is going out but check your charging system at a local autozone or parts store for free: battery: clean,free of acid post tighten? alternator:is it charging anymore, is the power hooked up or wiring wiring to battery and alternator:free from acid are thighten it can be both, u can buy a 1million dollar battery but if the alternator is not working then its worthless so check both
4 :
i would get it tested, but maybe you just left your lights on and it drained it.
