I spent several winters in Why Az.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Why,_Arizona

The photo sums it up nicely. It wasn't so much I could see more stars but 
I could sit out at night and really study them. The Milky Way stood out 
like I'd never seen before. I've lived almost all of my life in the north 
so the winter sky was something you admired very briefly before frostbite 
settled in. 'clear' is a synonym for 'colder than hell'.
