That would be Pt. Barrow at the top of Alaska, they get only a few inches of precipitation a year and qualify as a "Desert" abet an Arctic one.

But they are by far the coolest at -50 and cooler.....

Yeah I can't believe Las Vegas isn't on the list. It's certainly a desert city.

For that matter, so is Salt Lake City.

But of those in the poll I voted for ABQ.

Salt lake city is not a desert city, and its not even the "coolest" city in utah.
