Phoenix, AZ
With an average of 325 days of sun each year, Scottsdale and Phoenix are located in a valley aptly named “The Valley of the Sun.” Because of this plentiful sun, Phoenix has a lazy, small-town feel, which makes the gay scene in Phoenix also warm and inviting.
This gay-friendly town also has an incredibly diverse LGBT scene, and visitors can enjoy art and food from different cultures in the central city.
