Phoenix Arizona is to be found in Maricopa County, AZ and is the capital city of the state. Founded on the banks of the normally dry Salt River, it was incorporated as a city in 1881.

It has the highest average temperature of any major US city and this, coupled with it's size has led to it becoming 6th largest city in the US. Phoenix real estate is popular because, despite its population and therefore the full range of modern facilities and luxuries one would expect in a major city, the city is spread over a large area, meaning that population density is relatively low. This means that buyers looking to buy property in Phoenix will get comparatively more for their money than if purchasing a home somewhere else.

In total there are 1,500,000 residents.
