  • Tucson was recently named one of the most entertaining cities in the United States, right next to New York City and Las Vegas. But what about Phoenix?

The article discusses a ranking by WalletHub that evaluated the entertainment value of 100 U.S. cities, where Phoenix did not fare well, ranking 67th overall. Despite Phoenix's poor showing, Tucson, another Arizona city, ranked 45th, suggesting it offers more entertainment options relative to its size. The ranking considered factors like the number of attractions, nightlife, and cost of entertainment. Phoenix scored particularly low in terms of the number of restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues per capita. However, the article notes that Phoenix has attractions like the Desert Botanical Garden and the Musical Instrument Museum, which might not have been fully captured in the WalletHub metrics. Meanwhile, Tucson's higher ranking could be attributed to its cultural attractions, including its vibrant arts scene and historical sites, which might appeal more to tourists and locals looking for unique experiences.
