Since I am a co-founder of Noisebridge Hackerspace (nprofile…8qg7) which is a SF based hackerspace, the "No hackerspace" is factually incorrect. Albeit, I dunno about Tuscon, but https://hackerspaces.org/ exists to help folks keep track of where such things may also exist geographically.
There are lots of community spaces, libraries are popular in the USA for example. Parks aren't as nice as what I found in Berlin generally speaking (and Noisebridge is no where near as cool as C-Base which was a major inspiration) but there are various other community spaces, contingent upon the community: which maybe you aren't a part of as you are traveling which is a challenge.
Traveling itself, especially due to the GM Streetcar conspiracy (further reading here on that cautionary tale here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Motors_streetcar_conspiracy) is unfortunately largely by car in most states in the USA in the 21st century. It wasn't always that way; but oligopoly hegemonic assholes have done wonders on destroying what little decent infrastructure existed and are trying to do the same in many other nation states even now.
You seem (between this and the yolo stuff) to be, from my vantage, really focused on "convenience" or lack thereof?
As an American, I find that confusing. Almost everything here is the opposite of truly convenient. Also this concept of "finish work" is meaningless to me insomuch as I was forced to work (unpaid) as a minor and most jobs I have had as an adult have had me "on call" 24x7 for years. There is no "finish" work, there is always more work tomorrow. Retirement and pensions are something something rich privileged people have in theory I guess? I wouldn't know anything about that in my existence in this incarnation in the USA.
I expect to I will still be forced to work even after I am murdered, like Robocop (meme attached for reference).
Maybe you've heard the expression: "Land of the free, home of the brave" with reference to the United States of America?
I have a different expression, which rhymes but is more accurate:
"Land of the fee, home of the slave."
