you should post this on the "Phoenix" page, you will get more responses. I honestly don't know about the demand for people in either of those jobs. As for gay friendly, I think Phoenix is very gay friendly. I have a few gay friends and they have never given me any reason to think otherwise. I think the central corridor is probably the most " gay friendly" area. You might have a harder time out in the burbs, everyone out there wants the Brady Bunch lifesyle and ... well a gay couple isn't usually the suburbanites vision of the perfect neighbor if you know what I mean.
My guess on the jobs is that it would be easy find a job in either. Phoenix is one of the fastest growing cities in the U.S. and with growth we are going to need more urban planners. With more growth we need more teachers. Just my opinion, not based on facts. Good luck
