Why do you think it's ranks that low?
Do you think the prison reputation has anything to do with it?

Not sure what you mean by prison reputation exactly. If you are talking about tent city that has been gone for several years.

I think it really boils down to living in a big city. Here in PHX people tend to keep to themselves. For example, I have lived in my house for 10 years and I know only one name of all my neighbors. People drive up their drive, pull in their garage and the door is going down before the car is parked.

Yeah, I sometimes forget that Phoenix is such a big city and sprawls outward.

Yeah.... the PHX metro area is about 90 miles from one end to the other. The county I live in, Maricopa, is larger than two or three east coast states, separately.
