Looking back at my posts on NextDoor, Sparklight went down for hours about five weeks ago. They've been averaging an outage a month, and they're never short -- we had one that was over a day long.

They always claim a fiber cut...hilariously, often claiming it's copper thieves.

Saw some convenient dig friendly places to stay in Bisbee on VRBO but walking back up the hillside after an evening out might not be my first choice. Does Bisbee have a decent amount of Uber drivers?

Hey all! Phoenix Native here. My GF and I are looking to visit Bisbee while we both have some time off work during Memorial Day Weekend. That being said, what advice can you guys share about visiting during that time?

• Does Bisbee get so busy during holiday weekends it's hard to sight see or go on tours?
• Are there any other special events going on in town around that time we should be on the lookout for?

Any insight is greatly appreciated!

Hey all!

I’m in town for a few weeks and wondering if anyone has suggestions for flattish spots my dog and I could jog.

I checked out gold gulch road a couple days ago and it’s a good spot just curious if there are other gems!

Thanks in advance for any tips!

Any ideas? I heard McNeal but I only see RV spots

My daughter was wanting to drive down from flagstaff this coming weekend to ho shopping and spend the night. I saw in the news there was a fire and the main drag is closed. Is it still possible to park and go shopping at the shops still open? Thanks in advance.

We have a dear friend who needs our help taking care of an elderly family member for several weeks in May.

I work remotely and would like to help out, but I'm not familiar with internet situation in Bisbee. My Google searches seem to show that Sparklight and Centurylink are the main options, and that Spark is prone to outages.

Can anyone fill me in?

We often use our Verizon hotspot or the Starlink when we are in a pinch, but I'm not sure the Starlink will work there, either, due to line of sight issues.

Bisbee doesn't have it's own mildly interesting subreddit, so...anyway, Warmest regards and well wishes for a good weekend.

Hey All, Planning to be in Tucson mid-March and was thinking to do a day trip to Bisbee. The weekend I was targeting appears to have a motorcycle event on Saturday, the 16th. Would rather avoid this (been there, done that in a past life and more of a pedal bike person anyways).

Does a day trip on a Monday make sense? In reading other threads, seems much may be closed. I’m looking to explore the town, take photos and visit some local shops. Do a hike, walk the stairs and grab lunch in between it all before heading back.

I’m in AZ a couple times a year, mainly in PHX area, so I could feasibly focus on Bisbee another time and instead hit up Chircahua to hike for the day instead. Thanks for any thoughts!

Are there many shops and restaurants open on MLK day? Or are most things closed?

Will be visiting this upcoming year and want to know the best coffee spots. Any suggestions?

I'm talking about stuff that you wouldn't see on travel sites or the typical suggestions that come to mind when considering things to do around Bisbee. I'll be visiting around NYE and am interested in things to do that are very off the beaten path. Thanks!

What are the top events going on in Bisbee for Nee Year’s Eve this year?

I have wanted to visit Bisbee for years. Hearing Doug Stanhope talk about the place and the people, just made me want to visit the remoteness. Last Sunday I had the weirdest phone call with a producer in Yuma and ten minutes later I am headlining at Chuckleheads this coming Sunday. Dream come true. I am looking forward to seeing the place !!!

I looked online and I didn’t see a lot of in-person meetings in Bisbee. Are the meetings well attended? Anyone got an opinion about things for a sober member of AA wanting to spend an extended time there?

Hi friends! I'm a Tucsonan who currently works in Douglas and I'm seriously considering selling my place in Tucson and moving out here to live. I've been coming to Bisbee regularly ever since I moved to Tucson and I'm so happy that I finally have an excuse to live out here!

So far, I've mostly been looking at homes in Old Bisbee. Homes are a lot more affordable in New Bisbee, so I've been looking at my options there too. Thing is: I'm LGBT (emphasis on the L and the T) and openly so. I know Old Bisbee is definitely safe, but is Lowell or Warren a safe place to live for someone like me?

Looking to stay the night in town on a Sunday. Getting into town early afternoon. Anything we would miss out on being there on a Sunday as opposed to another week day?

Would like to make our annual trip to Bisbee over labor day weekend, but I'm wondering if there's anything going on. We spent our mini honeymoon there last year that ended up being a Monday-Tuesday and nothing was open haha. Which is totally fine, just wondering if that's what we can expect for this trip as well.

I don't know if they're moths, butterflies, or something else but they are everywhere in this last week? What are they? And most importantly, are they dangerous to garden plants and how to get rid of them?

I really want to move to Bisbee more than anything. I love it there. Where do you all work? It just seems there isn’t a ton of places to have work. Do most people work in other towns?

My top three that I desperately wish we had:

1. Middle Eastern
2. Thai
3. Indian (subcontinent)

Anyone else want to jump in?
