Mesa

Why you'd want to live in Mesa

ooking for somewhere warm and sunny to retire? Mesa is one of the best cities to retire in because of many of the same reasons it draws snowbirds to the area—the amazing weather and active lifestyle you can have golfing, hiking, or horseback riding! Its close proximity to Phoenix also allows retirees to enjoy the big city but live more comfortably in the suburbs. Housing is more affordable than surrounding areas, too, and there are many resort-style 55+ communities in the Mesa area for residents ready to enjoy the perks of retirement. Plus, Mesa’s a great place to retire for your health because it’s home to Banner Desert Medical Center, one of the most comprehensive healthcare facilities in Arizona! If you’re thinking of raising a family in Mesa, you’re in luck because there are some great schools here. Since Mesa has the largest school district in Arizona, there are plenty of choices for families, including a Distance Learning Program. There are also amazing higher education opportunities throughout the area. Check out Mesa Community College, the largest community college in the Maricopa Community College District, or Benedictine University Mesa, which is an extension of the university’s main campus in Lisle, IL. For those hoping to pursue engineering, management, technology, or education, you can attend a four-year program at Arizona State University Polytechnic Campus—or there’s ASU’s main campus in Tempe, which is just 15 minutes away! Some of the best things to do in Mesa involve getting outside! With hiking, kayaking, and more, you won’t want to miss the outdoor recreation here. Usery Mountain Regional Park is the perfect spot for nature walks, outdoor picnics, and horseback riding. Head out on the water at Saguaro Lake for kayaking, paddle boarding, and whitewater rafting. Make a weekend trip to do it all and stay in the cabins at Saguaro Lake Ranch. Travel 40 minutes northeast to Butcher Jones to have a family beach day full of relaxation and picnicking. via extraspace.com
