Tempe sits at the center of the Phoenix metro, tucked between Scottsdale to the east and Phoenix to the west, with Arizona State University anchoring much of its identity. ASU's main campus is one of the largest in the country by enrollment, and its presence shapes the city's creative energy, economic stability, and year-round calendar of events — from gallery openings to guest lectures and live performances at ASU Gammage. Technology companies and healthcare employers also contribute to a diverse local economy that extends well beyond the university.
The city spans about 41 square miles, offering a range of neighborhoods to suit different lifestyles. The Downtown and Mill Avenue corridors put residents close to arts venues, including the Tempe Center for the Arts, while areas like Maple-Ash feature tree-lined streets and historic bungalows. South Tempe delivers a quieter suburban feel with quick freeway access throughout the Valley.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
