Review of Mesa, Arizona


Winter is spectacular, Spring is great
Star Rating - 5/18/2010
I have lived in Mesa, AZ for 8 years now. There really is no substitute for winter in Mesa. It is beautiful. What passes for summer everywhere else is winter here. Roses are blooming and the citrus fruit is ready to be harvested.

It is still wonderful in the spring and beautiful as the desert blooms. The citrus trees smell SOOOO good for the three or four weeks they are in full bloom. It is gorgeous.

Summer can be a challenge. Just make sure you have windshield shades for your car, a swimming pool, and air conditioning and you should be fine. It is pretty awesome to be able to swim until midnight under the full moon in an unheated pool that is still warm from the summer sun.
