  • Phoenix, PHOENIX Obviously, Is Blessed in the Sunshine Department
    SEASONS Mother Nature smiles on some cities more than others. Phoenix, PHOENIX obviously, is blessed in the sunshine department. Phoenix basks in sunshine more than any other major metropolitan area in the U.S. — during 85 percent of its daylight hours. And the cliché ARIZONA that “it’s a dry heat” rings true, too: Humidity levels are pleasantly low, even in summer. The bottom line: Any time is a good time to visit the Sonoran Desert. WINTER During the winter months Greater Phoenix enjoys blue skies and highs in the 60s and 70s. Winter nights in the desert can get chilly, though the temperature rarely dips below freezing. SPRING Phoenix’s weather is consistently perfect during springtime. Daytime temperatures loll around 80 degrees, while evenings are comfortably cool. Spring is when hikers hit the trails to see blooming cactuses and wildflowers, and baseball fans flock to stadiums across the metro area for Cactus League Spring Training. SUMMER Summertime temps routinely reach triple digits in summer, but a 100-degree day in the desert actually feels much more pleasant than Average Temperatures in Phoenix an 85-degree day in a locale with heavy humidity. The best thing about summer in Phoenix: It’s value season. Prices at resorts, hotels and golf courses plunge as much as 30 percent. HIGH LOW (° F/ °C) (° F/ °C) FALL January 67/19 44/7 Autumn days in Phoenix are warm, sunny and exceedingly pleasant. It’s a great time for recreational pursuits, off-season sunbathing and serious February 71/22 48/9 shopping. Nights can get cool, but patio dining and outdoor events are March 76/24 52/11 still comfortable.

  • Arrowhead Towne Center
    CHANGE. VERY BECOMING. ARROWHEAD TOWNE CENTER The trade area is one of the largest and fastest-growing in Arizona – with a current population of nearly 1.4 MILLION AND ALMOST 500,000 HOUSEHOLDS. The trade area is projected to INCREASE 7.1% OVER THE NEXT FIVE YEARS. The Arrowhead shopper is more affluent than the surrounding area, with an AVERAGE HOUSEHOLD INCOME OF NEARLY $80,000 (39% higher than the trade area). THE STORY Arrowhead Towne Center has it all: Abundant national brands, strong anchors, a top-drawing movie theater and a robust set of suburban West Valley shoppers that consider Arrowhead their mall. Macerich is polishing this high-performing gem with an array of strategic updates, new amenities and fresh retail names to make the popular Arrowhead experience even better. It makes sense to invest in a market that is this good. Nearly ONE-THIRD OF THE POPULATION OF GREATER PHOENIX LIVES IN THE WEST VALLEY – and that number is expected to GROW 9% over the next five years. The West Valley is growing at a higher rate than compared to Phoenix Metro which is showing a 6.8% increase. Well-positioned in Glendale, conveniently located off the 101 and Bell Road, the 1.2 MILLION SQ. FT. Arrowhead Towne Center is the retail destination of choice for a wide range of residents: From young families and households with acquisitive teens, singles and couples in their 30’s and 40’s, to empty-nesters ready to spend on themselves. 1/3 THE WEST VALLEY’S of the Greater Phoenix population lives in the West Valley.
