text: Awwww, PHX folks, you are so spoiled. Endless outdoor dining options, beautiful landscapes, incredible views AND affordable public transport?!?!  So jealous.  Whenever I travel outside of Indy, I ask myself \"Why do I not live here?\"  And Phoenix, that is how I feel about you.  \n\nFor $4 you can ride all day unlimited and easily access so much of the town via the Light Rail - even for a tourist, this is a very easy way to navigate the city and see a lot with little time. It runs every 12 minutes throughout the business week and every 20 on the weekend.  \n\nI have a feeling that although some locals don't LOVE it, there is something to be said for a growing economy in PHX popping up around the rail.  So many cool ways to go downtown, eat and drink in the city.  It's reasonably safe as I never felt awkward or out of place, though it did get crowded on First Friday.  We were still able to squeeze in with the locals!  \n\nThe daytime ride included being joined by local students which were amazingly well behaved, despite the lack of adults around (we don't count ourselves).\n\nFor a mere $4 ride all day!  I love it.  I am jealous - that is all.
