Phoenix is one of 11 cities touted as "Best Places to Live" in the current issue of Resident magazine.
"Phoenix residents enjoy low housing prices and fine weather," the New York publication said in its review of top second-home locations.
The magazine also lists Santa Fe, N.M.; Boston; Atlanta; Louisville; Palm Beach, Fla.; Denver; San Juan, Puerto Rico; San Jose, Costa Rica; Minneapolis/St. Paul; and San Diego.
The magazine notes the ups and downs Phoenix area's housing market, but says winter visitors continue to drive demand for luxury properties in Paradise Valley and Scottsdale and that bargains abound despite the rise in housing prices.
