Stretching along the southern bank of the Salt River, some 20 miles east of Phoenix, the Maricopa County city of Mesa is home to a residential community of almost 450,000 people. Although by no means the largest city in Arizona – Phoenix and Tucson make that claim – Mesa certainly knows how to look after its residents and visitors. If arts and culture are your thing, you'll be impressed by the city's flamboyant oversized sculptures, and will likely end up with more than one picture of yourself sitting in a huge pink armchair sculpture. There's also the Mesa Arts Center and a generous handful of museums.
Shopping options are plentiful and include the Superstition Springs Center, the Mesa Marketplace and Swap Meet, Mesa Riverview, and the assortment of boutiques and stores that stretch along Main Street in Downtown Mesa. If you like to explore, you'll be able to set off on an array of day trips to the likes of Wickenburg, Lake Pleasant, and Mogollon Rim. Of course, you'll need a job to support this action-packed lifestyle. You can expect to find work in areas such as healthcare and education, as well as in fields as diverse as the technology of golf and commercial shipping.
The average age of residents in Mesa is just 35, so if you're looking for a vibrant – yet affordable – place to live, this Sonoran Desert city might just hit the spot.
