Affordability, Accessibility and Ample Sunshine in Glendale, AZ
As one of the largest cities in the Phoenix-metro area, Glendale offers visitors and long-time residents plentiful sunshine and affordable housing. It’s less than 10 miles from downtown Phoenix and a relatively short drive to Sky Harbor International Airport. Those who call Glendale home enjoy quiet, meandering suburban streets, beautifully preserved historic ranches and world-class sports stadiums only a stone’s throw away.
Founded in 1892, the Glendale area initially attracted agriculturalists whose lands lined the Arizona Canal system. Over the years, the population boomed with people flocking to the region in search of the comforts of desert living. Today, Glendale’s neighborhoods are full of families, couples and retirees, most often living in single-family homes. There are mansions lining the still-functional canal in north Glendale’s Arrowhead neighborhood, and shopping and buzzy eateries at the Arrowhead Towne Center and at the Westgate Entertainment District. Yet, Glendale retains a quaint, family-friendly atmosphere.
Glendale’s largest employers range from tech giant Honeywell to AAA, Coca-Cola and Lockheed Martin. Its economy is rooted in business services, aerospace and defense, health care, education, manufacturing and entertainment.

If you are a GCU parent, then this is the perfect place for you to store your son or daughters gear when they’re not in school.
