5th Street is only of the only streets in Tempe that make you feel like you are not in the desert. It has great tree's lined up and down both sides of the street and the cast a terrific shade. It is very well kept and you will often find children playing nearby because there is a great park right across the street. As far as nightlife and shopping there is no better place to live in Tempe, 3 blocks east is Downtown Mill Ave. There are shops, restaurants and nightclubs everywhere. So you should never have to drink and drive. The atmosphere is very laid back. On top of that there are countless festivals throughout the year that are always good fun. If you are looking for convienence to ASU or Downtown Mill this is truly one of the best places to live. You also are 10 minutes from Sky Harbor and 10 minutes from every major roadway. One walk down the street on a sunny day and you'll be hooked. Its great for east coasters who miss thier tree's. So take a stroll and fall in love.
