Is there any specific place better than Phoenix, AZ when it comes to helping asthma and allergies?

Fed up with having trouble with asthma and allergies so looking to move to help relieve some of the problems. The main issue I may have with Phoenix is that it seems may be too hot in the summer, so if its possible to find a place thats as good as it is for your health, minus that much heat, might be a good fit.

Arizona is no longer the haven it once was, due to transplantation of plants along with the population.
The dry mountains of New Mexico might offer some relief if you have been living in a more moist area such as the mid-Atlantic, or mid west as the plant populations will be much different.
There are many new medicines for allergy control available, so a trip to an allergist in your area might be the best bet.

Anyplace that's low in humidity. However, most of those places are usually hot.
ASK YOUR DOCTOR BASED ON THE TYPE OF ALLERGIES
Hate to be the bearer of bad tidings, but Phoenix is NOT a good place anymore for people with allergies/asthma. I moved here 20+ yrs ago, and had never had allergies until after I moved here! Too many people, too much pollution, olive trees, etc - it's just the pits for trying to breathe!

Now, the good news - if you get far enough outside of 'civilization', such as Tonopah, Quartzite, etc., where there aren't as many people, golf courses, imported vegetation, cars, concrete, and so forth, then you can get the clean air Phoenix used to be famous for, and the big plus is, without all of the above mentioned 'negatives', there is less heat and less humidity (golf courses, imported vegetation, etc., all take up a lot of water and put humidity back into the air). The 'dry heat' is a lot easier to take than 'humid heat'.
