From the Back Cover

For more than twenty years, the Insiders Guide® series has been the essential source for in-depth travel and relocation information - from true insiders whose personal, practical perspective gives you everything you need to know.

From its upscale resorts, restaurants, and nightclubs to its major-league sports franchises, championship golf courses, and vibrant arts scene, Phoenix?America's fifth-largest city?serves as the economic and cultural center of the Valley of the Sun. Some say Phoenix is rising again. A brand-new thirty-one-story Sheraton opened in 2008, the convention center has undergone a $600 million expansion, and a twenty-mile light rail connecting Phoenix with Tempe and Mesa will be carrying its first passengers from late 2008. This authoritative guide will show you how to navigate the area s urban villages, charming shops, and breathtaking desert landscapes.

Inside you'll find:

? Countless details on how to live and thrive in the area, from the best shopping to the lowdown on real

estate
? Comprehensive listings of accommodations, activities, and places to eat?and a new feature on the

area's top chefs
? The inside scoop on popular attractions such as the Challenger Space Center, the Desert Botanical

Garden, the Heard Museum, and the Goldfield Ghost Town
? Sections dedicated to children, retirement, and more
