Definition

For coverage purposes, metro Phoenix is Phoenix, AZ together with every incorporated community within 97 miles that is closer to Phoenix than to any other metro anchor — 18 communities and about 2,354,037 people beyond the core city. Communities are assigned to their nearest anchor, so the boundaries follow travel distance rather than county lines.

Geography

The anchor sits at 33.4484°, -112.0740°. Coverage extends in 6 compass directions from it, reaching 97 miles at its furthest. The largest surrounding community is Mesa, AZ — 457,587 people, 14.2 miles east.

Climate

Between October and April the Phoenix area averages an overnight low of 51.9°F and reaches 33.8°F at its coldest, with 48 days below 45°F — about 1.6 months. A cat’s thermoneutral zone starts around 86°F against a typical indoor 64–72°F, so those are the months an indoor cat here is actively hunting for a heat source.
