Is Tucson the county seat of Pima County?
Yes. A.R.S. § 11-112 says the county seat of Pima County is Tucson.
The City of Tucson website is tucsonaz.gov. The OMNI Homes International office is in Tucson, at 7445 N Oracle Rd Ste 201. The 14.5 mile figure uses the Census internal point for the whole city. It is not the distance from the office, and it is not a downtown measurement. Tucson's land area is 242.203 square miles, so a sale on one side of the city is not automatically a comparable for the other side.

Selling
How do I get a home value in Tucson?
