I'd live there; simply because I could ride nearly year round

Not so much; have friends who have bikes but don't ride during the summer because going 65 in 108 degree temp is killer.

I've been down there in July. It's really not that much worse then here.

It's a "dry heat" - very different. It's not that bad actually. Course I've lived in Texas all my life so I'm very used to the heat.

Yep. I've been there too. Used to travel a LOT when I worked for Six Flags and frequently made stops in Tucson. That's where I experienced my first "evaporative cooling porch" and saw how hardly nobody had grass in their front yards. Got used to both after awhile.

I spent a ton of time in the Mesa/Gilbert area working at ASU East. Unless things have changed in the last couple of years stay away from this area:

Then why not Florida? At least you get to go to beaches in the heat.

I'm going into my 4th summer down here. People come down here to visit Disney or the beaches and its always July and August. It's not always that over bearing hot.
It ain't no dry heat. It gets as hot in KC as it does in Florida in the summer. The only difference is that it will cool off the feels like 100 degree temps for a week or two in the summer.

I've been to Florida in the late fall and winter, and it's great... but, then there's the other 8-9 months of the year when people in Florida aren't bragging about the weather every chance they get....

I'm not sure that being in Phoenix is really "living".
