Cities like to make up their own municipal mottoes, like tony Scottsdale, which calls itself: “The West’s Most Western Town.”
Sure.
We decided to take 10 Phoenix suburbs and give them more realistic monikers. Here we go:
10. Apache Junction: “Arizona’s largest trailer park.”
(Caution: Language not safe for work.)
We’re thankful for you. Are you thankful for us?
We feel thankful for our staff and for the privilege of fulfilling our mission to be an unparalleled source of information and insight in Phoenix. We’re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to this community.
Help us continue giving back to Phoenix.
9. Mesa: “We just say we’re from Phoenix.”
8. Paradise Valley: “Rich people live here.”
7. Glendale: “We don’t have our act together.”
6. Peoria: “Hey, at least it ain’t Glendale.”
5. Scottsdale: “Park your BMW between the other two.”
4. Tempe: “The temporary home of thousands of blackout-drunk college students.”
3. Buckeye: “The beginning of the end of civilization.”
2. Gilbert: ” Mormon capital.”
1. Sun City/Sun City West: “Old people live here.”
