Tempe offers a quality of life unparalleled to any place in the State, It is Arizona's sixth-largest city with over 164,011 residents. The tone of Tempe's educational environment is set by Arizona State University, the nation's third largest university. ASU has an enrollment over 50,000 students and is expected to grow to over 60,000 students in the next decade. Mill Avenue is one of the hottest growing districts in Phoenix, and offers the tourists and local students a wide range of shopping and restaurants.

Tempe has successfully blended the dynamics of a high-tech business center, the fun and excitement of a resort lifestyle, the warmth and comfort of a residential neighborhood, and the small town atmosphere of a college community.

Tempe is ideally located in central Maricopa county adjoining the cities of Scottsdale to the North, and Phoenix to the West, Mesa to the East and Chandler to the South. Tempe's strategic location is a boom to businesses and residents who enjoy a convenient commute to any part of the Valley.

Downtown Tempe is a cultural center in its own right and is pedestrian-oriented with pedestrian linkages to ASU. As the cities principle business district, it is considered a premier entertainment center featuring a wide variety of restaurants, shopping, hotels, corporate offices and lofts. Twice each year in the Spring and Fall, Downtown Tempe hosts the Festival of the Arts, which brings nearly 250,000 visitors and over 500 exhibitors during a three day period.

Tempe is home to the Arizona State University Sun Devils, and the Spring Training Facility for the Oakland Athletics and the Anaheim Angels.

Sports merge with both business and pleasure at Tempe's Town Lake, and the Rio Salado project, a new 5.5 mile long recreational and commercial facility. This exciting project involved converting the dry bed of the Salt River into a fabulous lake for boating, and a meandering park along the lake front which offers 185 surface acres of trails, playing fields, picnic sites and an equestrian center.
