Tempe, Arizona is a city like no other. With a rich night life, perfect weather, and one of the best universities in the country, it is no surprise that this is the perfect city. Tempe is home to many spectacular things such as the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, spring training center for the MLB, and the ASU Sun Devils. With these many attractions, one could never be bored here!
The perfect day alone would consist of a day shopping on Mill Ave, going to one of the many festivals at Tempe Beach Park, boat paddling on Tempe Town Lake, eating at In-N-Out, and finally an ASU football game. This city is so full of life with young and vibrant college students, along with the locals. This is an ideal city for the fresh out-of-high school student or one who is looking to retire here. Especially since Scottsdale, Phoenix, Chandler, and Mesa are all neighboring cities!
Tempe, AZ is especially close to my heart because it reminds me of home. Here in Tempe, I feel like I’m still in California with my family and friends. The warm weather and friendly atmosphere definitely helps with the transition of moving away from my family. I could not see myself going anywhere else than ASU and living in Tempe. I can honestly say that I can call this place my home. That’s what makes Tempe, AZ so special.
