Why you'd want to live in Scottsdale

Welcome to Arizona’s most luxurious city, Scottsdale. Known primarily for its immaculate spa-resorts, high-end shopping and restaurants, and pristine golf courses, Scottsdale is nothing short of an oasis in the Sonoran Desert. In addition to its lavish reputation, Scottsdale is a very diverse and active city. Enjoy the historic Old Town district where you’ll be immersed in southwestern culture and walk amongst the 19th century olive trees. For the outdoor-enthusiast, Camelback Mountain and the McDowell Sonoran Preserve offer thousands of miles of open hiking, biking, horse riding and driving trails. For those who enjoy the thrill of the night, Scottsdale is home to Arizona’s premier nightlife district where people gather from around the country to enjoy a night out. Last, but certainly not least, Scottsdale offers plenty of activities for families of any age or size. Attractions including water parks, sports facilities, a newly built Aquarium, and many more make for perfect activities for children and adults of all age ranges. Even the world-renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright chose Scottsdale to be home to his final masterpiece, where he’d eventually retire. He named it “Taliesin West”, meaning “Shining Brow of the West” because the sweeping vistas and sunbaked rocks of the McDowell Sonoran Preserve enthralled him. We only hope it will be as enchanting to you as it has been for us. Welcome, to Scottsdale.
