The capital of Arizona, Phoenix is the fifth most populous city in the United States, with a population of 1.6 million people. Built on the remains of ancient Hohokam canal systems, the city was once known for large-scale agriculture due to its proximity to the Salt and Gila rivers. Today, Phoenix is home to a thriving high tech industry and celebrated for its many museums and performing arts venues.
The seat of Maricopa County, Phoenix's satellite cities and suburbs include North Mountain Village, Alhambra, Camelback East, Glendale, Peoria, Su City, Paradise Valley Village, Desert Ridge, Estrella Village, Central City, Goodyear, and Scottsdale. The Grand Canyon is a three-hour drive to the north.
Real estate, finance and insurance, manufacturing, retail trade, and healthcare dominate the Phoenix economy, as well as government, which generates $18.9 billion in revenues a year. Four Fortune 500 companies call Phoenix home, including Avnet, Freeport-McMoRan, Petsmart, Republic Services, and Honeywell’s Aerospace. Luke Air Force Base, located in Phoenix’s western suburbs, is also a major employer in the area.
Phoenix is located in the Sonoran Desert at an elevation of 1,100 feet, resulting in long, blisteringly hot summers, and short, warm winters. The hottest major city in the United States, Phoenix averages 107 days a year with temperatures in excess of 110℉. Expect plenty of clear blue skies--Phoenix also receives 3,872 hours of sunshine a year--more than any other major city on the planet.
