Phoenix

Newest Review: ... they have recently built a light-rail system. It starts somewhere near central Phoenix, and goes all the way to Mesa I believe. I've heard mixed opinions about it, but I hear it's cheap! The weather is fantastic, if you like it hot that is. Around the middle of march, it starts hitting the high 80's, and by April/May it is in the 100's. It cools down to about 99 degrees at night in June-August, and is about 114 during the day.

Phoenix is a beautiful place to live. Not only is it one of the cleanest cities in the U.S., it is one of the best run. Over the last 10 years Phoenix has grown past it's initial boundaries into what is referred to as the East Valley, West Valley, North Phoenix, and North Scottsdale. In each of these new areas of the metro Phoenix area are new and beautiful communities with homes ranging from the low $100,000 to over $1 million dollars. Although Phoenix is located in the middle of the desert, you will find it surprising that palm trees and flowers are in abundance that line the streets and highways. New highways now have what they call "wall ... Read the complete review
