Phoenix, Arizona, is a top retirement destination for those 55 and older in the United States, thanks to its affordable cost of living, abundant sunny days, and renowned golf courses and communities. Sun City, northeast of Phoenix, was the first active adult community in the nation, marking the Phoenix area as a retirement hub for over six decades.
Known as "The Valley of the Sun," the Phoenix metropolitan area has over four million residents, making it one of the largest and fastest-growing regions in the country. With an average of 325 sunny days annually, the nickname is well-deserved.
Phoenix's climate is arid, with scorching summers typical of a desert environment. However, from November to April, the weather is sunny and pleasant. Golf enthusiasts will enjoy over 185 golf courses, including public, private, resort, municipal, and executive options in and around Phoenix.
The Phoenix metropolitan area includes Maricopa County and parts of Pinal County, featuring cities like Phoenix, Mesa, Glendale, Tempe, and Scottsdale. Scottsdale, notable for its large artist population, also offers numerous spas, world-class restaurants, and art galleries.
Phoenix, Arizona, continues to attract retirees with its appealing attributes, solidifying its reputation as a vibrant retirement haven.
