This sizzling desert metropolis boasts of a long list of outdoor activities that lure locals out of their slippers and into their Skechers.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>You might already know Phoenix as Arizona\u2019s capital and for its year-round warm and sunny climate and desert landscapes. The city acts as the central anchor of a sprawling multicity metropolitan area aptly named the Valley of the Sun.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>With over 1.6 million people, Phoenix is the fifth most populous city nationwide and the largest city in the state. Although it picks up on the arid climate passed on by the neighboring Sonoran Desert, Phoenix became popular as an agricultural community in 1867.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>In this desert environment of the Salt and Gila River Valleys, there was not enough rainfall to grow crops. But thanks to the area\u2019s canal system, agriculture thrived. These irrigation canals were crafted by the Hohokam people who lived in the area for over 2,000 years and were the only culture in North America to rely on irrigation canals to supply water to their crops.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>Other than the mountains in and around the city, Phoenix is generally flat, allowing the city\u2019s main streets to run on a precise grid with wide, open-spaced roadways. The area is split generally between its south, central, and northern parts, with locals referring to these areas as simply \u201cSouth Phoenix\u201d for example. Neighboring towns like <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" title=\"Scottsdale\" href=\"\/az\/scottsdale\/movers\/\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">Scottsdale<\/a> and Mesa to the east and Glendale directly to the west of the city often get lumped into the area.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>So now that you have an overview, check out our list below. We\u2019ve narrowed down Phoenix\u2019s top places to live so that you can pick a Phoenix home that\u2019s perfect for you.
