In 2022, nearly 400 people in Maricopa County — which includes Phoenix, Tempe, Scottsdale, and other surrounding cities — died from heat-related conditions, according to Maricopa County Public Health. This story is available exclusively to Business Insider subscribers. Enter Culdesac, a car-free community in Tempe that is combatting the area's heat problem with a neighborhood built to cool. A company representative told Business Insider that the 17-acre block houses 200 people, but the company is aiming for 1,000 residents. AdvertisementI recently got a tour of Culdesac, where I anticipated open street paths, shops, and amenities residents could walk to.

PHOENIX (AP) — After a summer of extreme heat, Arizona’s most populous city is in the record books again. The National Weather Service said Sunday that the monsoon season this year in the arid Southwest dropped only 0.15 inches (.38 centimeters) of rainfall from June 15 to September 30. Phoenix’s average rainfall during a monsoon season is 2.43 inches (6.1 centimeters). Confirmed heat-associated deaths in Arizona’s most populous county continue to rise in the aftermath of the record summer heat. Scientists predict the numbers will only continue to climb as climate change makes heat waves more frequent, intense and enduring.
