As they do every year, Time's Money Magazine released their "Best Cities To Live" list this week and Phoenix's very own Mesa, AZ came in as the "#1 Best Big City To Live In The Southwest". Money.com sorted through the 63 "big" cities in the Southwest, which included any city in the region with over 300,000 residents. Just as they do with their "Best Places" list (which can be found here), the deciding factors towards choosing Mesa as #1 included a strong job market, affordable housing, and proximity to parks, culture, and healthcare. A city would get an additional boost in the rankings if it had desirable crime rates and a strong public school system.

The 461,000 residents living in Mesa, AZ should be proud to call it home! With a median home price of $172,500 and an average property tax as low as $1,200 per year, housing affordability in Mesa is outstanding. Mesa also boasts an unemployment rate of 4.5%, well below the current national unemployment rate of 5.3%. Perhaps the most impressive factor that went into this, and may even surprise most greater Phoenix residents, is that Mesa is home to 9 of the 51 schools earning the Arizona educational Foundation's A+ rating this year. Those 9 schools total more than any district in the state, which is quite the accomplishment. Don't forget that right next door to Mesa is Tempe, AZ, home to Arizona State University and the well respected W.P. Carey School of Business. In fact, ASU Poly's campus is located in Mesa, focusing on aviation and engineering. Fore more information about living in Mesa and their incredible schools available to residents we recommend heading to www.GreatSchools.org.

Property taxes in Arizona in general are incredibly inexpensive compared to many parts of the country and are typically .5% to .75% of your home's value, but Mesa holds one of the best property tax values in the state.
