The answer to why more people are moving to Scottsdale may appear obvious: an abundance of sunshine with an average of 295 days plus a temperature averaging 72.55 degrees year-round. However, those fortunate to call Scottsdale home flock here for more discerning reasons.

People of all ages are placing a top priority on living where an active lifestyle is congruous with the amenities of a safe, vibrant and smaller metro hub. Staying connected via the internet has afforded Scottsdale residents and new transplants to work from home and appreciate what Scottsdale has to offer.

An eclectic landscape of restaurants and fine dining, cultural activities and museums plus major sporting events has attracted people of all ages to live here and leave the larger, more expensive metro locations. Scottsdale attracts the younger singles, married couples working remotely and retirees alike with more affordable housing opportunities than its metro counterparts in the U.S.  In addition, minutes away is Sky Harbor Airport – ranked yearly a top 10 airport worldwide offering convenient business and leisure travel to global destinations.

Hiking and mountain biking in Scottsdale’s backyard McDowell Mountain Range are popular activities. With over 120 miles of nonmotorized pathways traversing the city, residents can bike to Old Town Scottsdale, in addition to cycling the more than 300 miles of bike lanes connecting surrounding valley locations. Scottsdale and neighboring areas have over 200 public and private golf resorts, earning recognition as one of the top golfing destinations.

People are living longer and their quest for a year-round recreational and cosmopolitan way of life has drawn them here. And sunny Scottsdale welcomes them.
