The Community :

Nicknamed the Valley of the Sun, the Greater Phoenix area sees more sunshine than nearly any other metro area in the country.

That in and of itself can be enough to entice people to lay down roots here, but Arizonas capital also features a desirable combination of a thriving job market, a relatively low cost of living and plenty of ways to enjoy the nice weather.

Residents find plenty to do in the Phoenix area. Outdoor enthusiasts can hike trails in the Phoenix Mountains Preserve, kayak or paddleboard on Tempe Town Lake or enjoy desert wildlife at the Desert Botanical Garden.

Museums with themes ranging from Native American history to musical instruments to art to firefighting provide respite from the sun.

Cheering on Phoenixs professional sports teams, including the MLBs Arizona Diamondbacks, the NFLs Arizona Cardinals, the NBAs Phoenix Suns, WNBAs Phoenix Mercury and the NHLs Arizona Coyotes, is another favorite pastime.

And each winter, golf enthusiasts descend on the area to watch the Waste Management Phoenix Open.
