Review of Phoenix, Arizona


Heat In Phoenix
Star Rating - 9/9/2013
It is true, the winters are great in Phoenix. I'm not sure if they are good enough to make up for the miserable summer heat. When we moved on June 15, 2013 from an apartment to a rental house, the temperature was 118 degrees. Our movers almost collapsed from the heat. You really must want to live in the desert and tolerate temperatures that don't go below about 95 degrees at night. If this doesn't bother you, you will love it here.

con't... I moved here instead of Florida because 2 doctors thought this is the best place for me well here I am today with high blood pressure, allergy induced asthma where I can't breath for the last two months ... I could go on and on... I wish there was a way for all of us people from Philly and New York to form a group * I need friends *

omg Greg ... I am from Philly too - so nice to hear from another Philly person ... actually met a guy from AAA that was so friendly and helpful when he towed my car - We live in Hell's Armpit and these people out here are the worst I ever met in my life. I worked in the worst section of Philly to the best section and everyone was so nice to me - out here I can't even get a neighbor to talk to .. I have had 5 neighbors on each side of me in the 17 yrs I have lived here ... I moved here instead of Florida because 2 doctors said that Phoenix would be so much better for my allergies, bronchitis and asthma ... I buy a house here, can't get a job .. this is 17 yrs ago mind you -- can't make friends because I don't fit in because I tell it like it is and don't talk about you behind your back like they do.
