Tempe
Home of Arizona State University! Tempe is Arizona's 7th largest city. This college town has approximately 50,000 ASU students. Tempe prides itself on being the Valley's most authentically urban destination. Tempe's Mill Avenue District, with its tree-lined streets and wide sidewalks, serves as a link between Arizona State University's main campus and Tempe Town Lake. This area also provides entertainment, shopping and recreational opportunities including 175 stores, restaurants and nightclubs, all within walking distance of each other. Bicyclists can find their way to work on any of Tempe's 150 miles of bike paths, some of which circle Tempe Town Lake and wind through the 2,225 acres of the City's park system. More than 45 new projects currently under development are expected to attract between 5,000 & 8,000 new residents into the downtown area with the next two years. www.Tempe.gov
