Nothing to do in Sierra Vista. You must drive to Tucson for the race tracks and related entertainment.

Depends on what you consider interesting. Tucson is about 90 +/- minutes away depending on your destination and rate of travel. If you thought you are in a remote location now... You will be leaving a location surrounded by water to one surrounded by desert. OK its not that bad. It is actually really nice here.

Interesting/tourist places to visit, Tombstone (OK Corral), Douglas, Bisbee, and Fort Huachuca.

If you are looking for night life and you are frequent the club scene there are a couple clubs here in SV however Tucson has a much greater selection and even more in Phoenix (2.5 - 3.0 hours away).

If you are into the outdoors, hiking, mountain biking, road cycling, etc. SV and Tucson have a lot to offer.

If you are looking to hang out with a local car club to talk cars and enjoy some competition visit www.sonoranmusclecars.com and www.sirace.com. Mostly Tuscon membership with some SV membership. Overall SV is a quiet community. Again it all depends on what you consider interesting.
