Life in the City

Phoenix is just hours from countless breathtaking parks (Grand Canyon and Sedona to name a few). Though most people think Arizona is just a desert, we’ve got quite the varied geography. From waterfalls and pine forests to mountains and lots of cacti- we’ve got it all. Even when it is a temperate 70 in the city, there is great skiing just two hours away in Flagstaff. To top it all off, it averages 306 sunny days a year!

Phoenix

Phoenix is an easy city to navigate, though a car is a must. The Valley houses a sprawling metropolis where one can rub elbows with the wealthy and refined in Scottsdale, the co-eds in Tempe or the salt of the earth in Goodyear. Phoenix boasts of many fine dining establishments (including In-n-Out) and offers sport-enthusiasts endless entertainment (can you say Spring Training? oh and Go Cardinals!). Recreational activities abound in the city from hiking Camelback Mountain to golfing to floating down the Salt River.
