Review of Phoenix, Arizona


Strength Of A Big City.
Star Rating - 5/30/2024
Phoenix is a city of potential and definitely has a bad reputation that is not completely deserved all throughout the city itself. There is tons of things to do, places to eat at, and even higher quality spots throughout the valley. It does more than it's fair share trying to solve problems like Homelessness and Crime throughout doing more with less resources it has a state of the art real time crime prevention center and has been building affordable housing as best as it can. Phoenix is also attracting tons of high paying businesses from Asia like TSMC which is building 3 gigantic Microchip foundries in Northern Phoenix. It also has flights that are international from Paris France, Vancouver Canada, that are not lower quality airline travel opportunities. There is even a new International Asian District that is in the process of happening in Central Phoenix near the Light Rail in 19th ave and Camelback. This is the huge Strength Of A Big City is attracting high paying jobs for everyone, high quality yet attainable options of housing types with more on density and with a focus on walkability, transportation with Light Rail, BRT, Cycling infrastructure.

This is not a story of a struggling big city, or a big city on a downward spiral, but one that is rising to the occasion, that preservers, and solves problems proactively, that listens and tries to build the ideal city of the future that everyone would like to live in as a whole. Every Big City is finding out to build more for people and small businesses with a focus on Transportation than for offices and small amounts of things to do with better integration of Mixed Use. Phoenix is ahead and will be there sooner than later.
