You must be moving to Sierra Vista, and your husband is going to be a DOD contractor doing something relating to computers, unmanned flying things or intelligence.
I'm at Ft. Huachuca right now :) I think you might be surprised at how pretty it is here. I was. It does get hot during the day, but only if you're in direct sunlight for a little while (more than 20 seconds... >.>) and there's almost always a good breeze. There are a lot of things to do in the area, and if you can get access to things on post (you should if your husband works here) they usually have fun things going on. Also if you like hiking and/or birds, there's a lot to do in that area as well.
On the flip side, if you plan to go hiking, you should either buy and know how to use a pistol or bring someone who has one and knows how to use it. We are about ten miles from the Mexico border here and it is not uncommon for "illegals" to attack people they come across for whatever reason. (Dead bodies can't really explain why they got attacked.)
So umm. *cough* don't be scared! It's great! Really.
