Review of Phoenix, Arizona


The best city in the country
Star Rating - 9/13/2005
After spending six years in the military and traveling around the country I have found that Phoenix is truly the best city. I think the best way for me to portray this is to give short explanations as to why Phoenix is so much better than other cities. Great weather 90% of the time, beautiful scenery, no hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, or significant flooding, beautiful sunsets/sunrises, gorgeous girls everywhere, great hiking and biking trails, very safe city regardless of what Sperling's says, good schools, lots of history, low humidity, mosquitoes almost obsolete, no snow or sleet, yet snow capped mountains within an hours drive, affordable housing, great people, abundance of night life, well thought out and maintained roads, no potholes or lights hanging on wires, vast array of golf courses, starry nights, beautiful landscaping and architecture, plenty of sunshine, great views, tons of great weekend getaways in the state, 3 lakes less than 30 minutes away, and not too much influence from any one group. I could go on but this should give you a good idea as to why Phoenix is so great.
