I live about 2 miles down the road from ASU. I have lived in Az for 20 years. I live in South Scottsdale a few blocks north of Tempe. Where you want to live depends on where in ASU you will be attending classes because there is a ASU EAST/ASU WEST/ASU MAIN ect... remember ASU has like 74000 students this year. ASU MAIN is in downtown tempe right by the Sun Devil stadium. Now if you don't have to worry about money... Scottsdale and or Tempe is a good bet for you. Although mind you Scottsdale is hella expensive and Tempe is starting to get up there also. Mesa is next door to Tempe to the east. Then Gilbert which is surrounded by Mesa. West Phoenix is probably 5 miles west of ASU MAIN. Tempe is a fairly small city in the middle of all the other cities. The Valley of the Sun has grown so much that all of the cities touch eachother. If you want walking distance to ASU MAIN... get a dorm in tempe, but all the parking around there sucks. South Scottsdale is a short drive. You could probably get an apartment or a house in west mesa that is within 5 to 8 miles also.

Yea... Peoria/Avondale you would be driving 35 miles one way to get to school.
