I'll add on another common misconception, often repeated on this forum:
"Phoenix is a retiree city." Or "The high population growth of Phoenix is due to old people flocking their in droves."
Both are false.
Phoenix is not a retiree city. It's median age is far lower than the U.S. and cities like New York.
