Sam Hughes is one of those central Tucson neighborhoods that outsiders don’t expect. Turn-of-the-century territorial style houses and mission-style bungalows painted in browns and purples and sage greens sit on quiet, tree-lined streets, all within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and parks. It’s also close to the University of Arizona and Downtown, and there is plenty of apartments for rent. You can expect to find everyone from university professors to starving students, lawyers and civic leaders to artists, young families to professional sports stars.
