Review of Phoenix, Arizona


Phoenix is a GREAT city!
Star Rating - 6/3/2007
To everyone that is writing a negitive review they must now live in an utopia because Phoenix is the closest you'll get! I am a native Phoenician, but I have lived/ have homes in many other places and Phoenix is by far the best. I have just returned frome my home in LA and when comparing these cities Phoenix cleans up. Phoenix is also a major city and with any city of its size you'll have crime period. So you're going to have this unless you move to Mountain Home, ID. The summers are NOT bad at all because Phoenix is designed around being inside in the summer. The only time you'll feel it is if you running outside in the middle of June and are you really going to do that? plus the winters more than make up for the summers. Phoenix is also a great sports city with major pro teams suns, coyotes, dbaccks, and cardinals. You also have Pac 10 member ASU in Tempe. Once you live here you realize the summers are a blessing because without them Phoenix would be LA!

UTOPIA???????????? You're kidding, right? It's a hell-hole and just a mini-version of L.A.

I agree with John!!! And you don't have to stay in your home all summer, you can go shopping or see a movie or even go to the water parks or the pool. There are great places that you can go in the summer.
