PHOENIX WEATHER

The beauty of Phoenix lies in its location. That proverbial oasis in the middle of the desert.

A century and a half ago, settlers established roots in an arid area now known as “The Valley of the Sun.” During that time, Phoenix has evolved from a small farming community into a major metropolitan city.

Located in the Sonoran Desert, Phoenix is the county seat of Maricopa County and the largest state capital in the United States. It is the only state capital with more than a million residents; the area, coupled with its many suburbs, is home to more than 4 million residents.

So, yes, it’s hot. But Phoenix is so much more than tumbleweeds and cacti. The desert is alive; it’s filled with culture, a one-of-a-kind experience and great food and wine. Phoenix truly has it all.
