Beautiful Golf Courses
You can get to Vegas, LA, and San Diego in 5 hours
3 hours to the Grand Canyon
White women everywhere (if you are single)
Has one of the best party schools in the US (ASU)
Professional Hockey, Basketball, Baseball, and Football
Ranked one of the safest metro areas in the US

Yes its a little hot during the Summers, but I think its a fair trade off

Went this past weekend and I can say I’d pick to live there over Dallas 10/10 times and I love Dallas

I went during spring training and stayed with a friend who lives right by the strip of bars/clubs by Whiskey Row or whatever. I definitely think this place is up there. Was incredibly impressed and cant wait to go back and visit again.

I went for the Fiesta Bowl and was unimpressed with everything except Tempe.

Its a five hour drive from me. I can’t wait to go back in November. Think we might go see ASU and USC play, and I’ll get in a round of Golf

I understand why lizards live in Arizona. Why people do and they call it home I’ll never understand

Glad you enjoyed your trip there last weekend

Hope my recommendations helped some. Granted I can’t tell you the latest news on the nightlife scene there anymore cause I’m old.

Went a couple of years ago in July and that whole "dry heat" excuse is bullshite. 120 degrees is 120 degrees and it was intense. Had never experienced anything like that.

That being said, my lawd the white wimmenz.

Been to PHX several times. I get why people like it, but definitely not my bag.
