re: Phoenix vs Seattle - Pros/Cons of Relocating

Seattle is much more compact, has a larger downtown, and is significantly more walkable with better public transit. Phoenix has some urban sprawl issues IMO. It's possible to live in Seattle without a car, don't think that would be possible in Phoenix.
Based on my expert opinion after visiting Phoenix twice, Seattle seems to be significantly more expensive.

I would imagine this as well.
Housing costs in Phoenix area(even Scottsdale) really are not that bad. We rent a 3br/2 bathroom 1400 sq ft home with 2 car garage in Scottsdale for $1450/mo(that includes landscaping as well). And Scottsdale is considered the most expensive part of Phoenix metro to live in.

Mostly good advice. Being from the side of WA that gets sunshine around 300 days per year I don't understand why people subject themselves to the over 200 days of gray skies.
If pay is the same and not adjusted for COL and you are young and single, I'd take Phoenix. Also whoever said it's possible to live in Seattle without a car and public transportation being reliable, has never lived in Seattle. That's just bad advice/info.
