Phoenix. I love Desert Cities. Scottsdale gives the edge over DFW too.

I agree. Scottsdale is a premiere shopping destination (also has a Neiman's, Barneys among others), a buzzing hotel scene (also more AAA-Five Diamond resorts), a hip and happening nightlife scene (nightclubs, lounges, bars, restaurants), more than 200 area golf courses, home to San Francisco Giants spring training, dozens of art galleries, all for a city of only 245,000.

Why isn't ritual suicide an option on this poll? LOL...

Tough call. Both cities are pretty diverse, decent nightlife, affordable living. Dallas has more high tech jobs, but if you make good money in Phoenix you can live like a king.

Scottsdale is awesome though. Dallas doesn't have much like that.
