Get Directions
West Tempe consists of commercial centers and quiet residences marked by the iconic desert landscape of Arizona. Tempe Town Lake, a dammed lake fed by the Salt River, provides a wet contrast to the dry environment just north of the neighborhood, providing locals with plenty of opportunities for boating, fishing, and hiking around the lake.
Commuters and students enjoy the area’s convenient location, which lies about two miles from downtown Tempe, three miles from the Tempe campus of Arizona State University, and four miles from Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. West Tempe affords residents the chance to bicycle or walk to shows at the Tempe Center for the Arts, festivals at the Town Lake, numerous movie theaters, and the Romantasy Cabaret—an award-winning group of Tempe performers. To be close to the action, check out apartments near West University Drive. This strip of development hosts the majority of the restaurants in the area.

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.
