About Downtown Tempe

The compact core of Tempe centers on a grid of walkable blocks with restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, and small independent retail. It's the most rentable, least car-dependent part of the city — popular with young professionals, downsizers, and remote workers who want to leave the house without starting a car.
