Do you feel like you don’t belong to your place anymore? Householding costs are getting only higher? Does a hectic lifestyle seem to be unbearable? There are many reasons for people to make such a big decision as moving across states. But the good news is that Americans are the most frequent movers inside the country in the world, which may characterize us the happy-seekers. It requires quite the courage to change your life completely and start from scratch. Congratulations, you’ve got it!
First of all, if you choose Phoenix, it’s a smart decision. In the last years Phoenix became the number one place to move in. Probably, you know the reasons, but we won’t hesitate to mention them:
- Relatively cheaper cost of living and householding;
- Year-round sunny weather;
- Comparably low traffic (vs Chicago or Los Angeles);
- Job opportunities. As was said before, the inbound of domestic migrants was high in last years, which led to certain business development. For instance, it’s still one of the most dynamic regions for tech companies’ growth.
- Sports venues and events;
- Lots of entertainment and restaurants;
- Amazing nature and active rest outdoors.
Though there are many pros in moving to Phoenix, don’t forget to consider some specific weather conditions here:
- Floods. The monsoon season usually starts on 15th June and lasts till 30th September. The tricky and thing about it is heavy rains which leads to floods. It may be dangerous when you are outdoors or in the city.
- Dust storms. Monsoon thunderstorms often provoke walls of dust which makes driving very hard.
- Lightning Storms. Arizona and New Mexico experience 1.5 million strikes per year, so the chance to be hit is quite high.
For the ones, who moved to Phoenix from a colder climate, warm weather is absolutely an advantage. But you should consider what’s more important for you.
