The Culture

Recreation, retail, and relaxation define the culture of Scottsdale. Imagine spending the morning on a world-class golf course or a destination spa, followed by shopping and dinner at a fabulous restaurant. Golfers will be in heaven, with TPC Scottsdale, Talking Stick, and the McCormick Ranch Golf Club being just a few of the incredible courses to play.

Fashionistas flock to Scottsdale for its Fashion Square, Waterfront and Old Town shops, and the stylish Kierland Commons Shopping Center, with stores from Anthropologie to Tesla. The Arts are revered in Scottsdale, with its Museum of the West, Museum of Contemporary Art, Thursday evening ArtWalk, and the growing Scottsdale International Film Festival.

There are fantastic public libraries, family restaurants, and dog parks in addition to the high-end shopping and dining in Scottsdale, and the city is known for its friendly, welcoming vibe.
