Central Tucson
The Central Tucson district is anchored by the city's largest park: 131-acre Reid Park has a 9,500-seat baseball stadium, a performance venue, a duck pond, public pools, and the 24-acre Reid Park Zoo along with playgrounds, gardens and picnic areas. Here also are two 18-hole municipal golf courses, Randolph and Dell Urich, and Reffkin Tennis Center. A 2-mile loop of paved multi-use trails follows the edge of the park, connecting with another 2.5 miles around the golf and recreation complex. Learn more about Central Tucson

With educational and athletic programs that consistently compete for tops in the country, it's easy to see why this sun-soaked campus is home to over 40,000 students.

Desert dwellers have known this to be a special place for millennia and today's inhabitants feel the same, enjoying the wide open spaces, the dark night skies, and the peace and quiet the mountains provide.
