Apache Junction, AZ - City Review 5 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) I just loved living in Apache Junction, Arizona. As part of the Phoenix metro area, Apache Junction is a community of approximately 38,000 people located just outside of Mesa, Arizona. Like every city in Arizona, this city felt the impact of the real estate crisis in 2009. Howeve ...Read More r, it bounced back to life and is now considered one of the best little small towns in Arizona.

The city has several golf courses for everyone, from novice to the professional. Shadowed by the Superstition Mountains, this area is home to several national and local parks. If you enjoy sunshine every day of the year, you will love living in the city of Apache Junction. With a typical high temperature of ninety-five degrees in the summer and fifty-one degrees in the middle of January, this community is ideal for anyone who wants to escape the long cold winter season.

So, if you love beautiful weather and outdoor recreation this is the ideal city to call home. This is a safe place to live, the crime rate is lower than the national average.
