Location Characteristics: Anchored by Arizona State University's 700-acre city-center campus, Tempe is a suburban city that feels urban - with an array of distinctive neighborhoods, independent shops and restaurants and cultural attractions. Tempe has a youthful energy defined by the university and it's diverse student population, which gives the area a sense of multiculturalism and vibrancy, the hub of which is Mill Avenue, where clubs, dining and shopping come together. Tempe's recreational highlights include five golf courses, about 50 parks, including two splash parks and a skate park, ASU's Sun Devil Stadium and Grady Gammage Memorial Auditorium, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, and of course, Tempe Town Lake, a two-mile long boating and swimming lake. Home to more than 158,625 residents, Tempe is also home to several of Arizona's largest employers, including America West Airlines, Safeway supermarkets and Motorola. Tempe is about 13 miles from downtown Phoenix and bordered by it to the west, Scottsdale to the north, Mesa to the east and Chandler to the south, accessible via Interstate 10, U.S. Highway 60 and Loop 202.
