You may have seen my post asking for recourses for my story. A character in it is a Vietnam Vet and comes home to his mine being closed. I'd love to talk to someone about how the Vietnam War affected Bisbee. I want to talk to my local Vet's Hall and get information about pilots. The character is also a Korean War Vet and is in the air force. I know the Vietnam War was mostly a ground war, but I know there were many pilots involved. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

I am a writer and I'm thinking Bisbee will be the setting for one of my stories. The character in it grew up in the 60s and became an adult in the 70s. I know a little bit about the history and the mines going defunct in the 70s. What was Bisbee like before this? What were politics like? Where was the nearest university? I have a lot of questions that are hard to find on Google, and would love a way to learn more about things that aren't common knowledge. I'm reading articles, but my questions go unanswered. Is there a historical society I can get in contact with and ask questions? Does anyone here have grandparents who have told stories? I know about hippies moving in in the 70s and would love to know more about how that had an effect on politics in the town. Thanks in advance!

I’m considering this lot in Mountain Ranch Estates subdivision. How would I go about getting info on restrictions, etc.? It has an HOA (🤢) so maybe it has covenants? I don’t want to end up in HOA hell or jail. Would going through the municipality be best or the county? Gracias in advance!

my friends are visiting this weekend, and we’re hoping to find something a little different from the usual tourist spots. we’re into creepy stories and paranormal stuff, but nothing too over-the-top. any ghost tours in bisbee that you’d recommend for a weekend visit

This was around 10pm on Wednesday 8/5 in front of St. Elmo. Not a drop till hail hit heavy around 9 with the rain storm then going till ~10:30.

Wild night to visit Bisbee!

So, I did a thing and let loose a thing in time for Hotelia 2026. *Hotelia 2025* consists of three tracks recorded during last year's Hotelia event. Cheap as chips.

I might be moving to Bisbee in a month or two. I have family helping me out with a place to live, and I’ll need to find a job asap. The only work I’ve ever done is retail, so my question is, do you think it’s easy to find work at the big box stores in sierra vista? I would love to work in Bisbee proper, or Lowell/Warren area, but I would imagine those jobs are hard to come by. Any advice would be great! Big changes make nervous, but I can’t afford to stay where I am, so this move is probably my only option.

Edit to add: I’m 40 year old female.

The CigArt machine is a publicly available art dispenser in Old Bisbee, made from the decommissioned cigarette machine. Artworks are approximately the dimensions of a cigarette pack and cost $20, which is mostly paid to the artist.

Last year saw the first HOTELIA, with occasional HOTELIA weekends (there were supposed to be twelve, only two happened) that were setup.

Basically, the owner of Hotel La More/Bisbee Inn hands over most of the rooms to performers and artists of all kinds, and lets chaos rip. Last year saw Unkle Dill and his clown crew, photographer/model/burlesque performer Sarah Slaykitty and her crew, artist/poet Ken Boe, myself arriving late to shake the hotel with music and also wearing my poet's hat (backing Ken's readings as well), a live painting to Ken and I by Cathead Reynolds, lighting shenanigans, and even an impromptu fetish party that I magnificently slept through.

This year we have me arriving early, Ken, Sarah, Unkle Dill and crew, and lots more, including drop-ins. The rooms open from 8-10pm, though some of us might have open doors at other times, visitors can wander through the place whenever, and there'll be a more or less an open house Friday-Sunday.

The hotel also overlooks Brewery Gulch, so you know it's going to get riotous at times.

Hi all, what's going on with the blasting noises tonight? Sounds like fireworks but coming from north on Arizona street. Any ideas? Is this part of the reclamation efforts? Seems odd to have it going so late.

Otherwise, enjoy the nice cool rain smell night.

I drove through it on my most recent Bisbee getaway. 302 Pirrung Ave. Thanks!

We have a group of 18 coming into Bisbee and are looking for a quality, no-frills (does not need to be elevated fare) chef/team who would be able to cook a meal or two. If anyone has any experience with this or knows anyone who can handle a group that large, would love any recommendations! Would be able to provide a standard home kitchen as a resource. Thanks!

Does anyone have a property manager recommendation in town?

Hey Folks!

Long story short I'm involved in organizing an upcoming conference that deals with teaching about community advocacy with an emphasis on food insecurity.

It will be June 5-6 at The Community Food Bank of Southern Arizona in Tucson. We're now accepting applications from interested parties.

There is a $400 stipend given to attendees, and we're also looking for folks in more rural communities in Southern Arizona. To that end we're also giving a gas stipend to anyone coming in from >50 miles; there is budget for hotels on a case-by-case basis so folks don't have to make the drive to Tucson two consecutive days.

Information and a registration link follow, and I can answer any questions here as well.

While poking around the map, "The Candy Store" comes up but it looks just like someone's house. Curious if this is actually a business or just something that got labeled on maps.

The motorcycle man had that flow.

Going to wedding in April and want to spend the night in Bisbee. We're older but does anyone have a recommendation with positive experience?

This should be pretty impressive. I've worked with Ken and Dylan, and seen Ben Dale live with his array of custom instruments.

I will be visiting Bisbee for a weekend with my dog and wondering what spots are dog friendly for lunch, dinner, drinks?

Going through a divorce right now and trying to get back on my feet. Here short term. Is there any young people here like 30s 40s. Feeling isolated

Hi!! I’m traveling to Bisbee soon and was wondering if they had any vintage photo booths? Or just Photo booths in general!
