Scottsdale has been named, on Businessweek.com, as the 4th best city to live in the United States. One would think that the upscale resorts and celebrity sightings would be one of the reasons, however the decision was made based on other statistics. “Scottsdale was recognized by the site for more fundamental quality-of-life reasons - superior schools, low unemployment and bevy of parks, in the online ranking of America's 50 best cities released this week.” Among the rankings, Gilbert (41st place), Chandler (45th place) and Phoenix (49th place) all made the “top 50.”

This is an interesting article. I found the Phoenix area to be very clean, nicely laid out, and most areas are very safe.
