Here are which Arizona cities are best for Christmas in 2022, per WalletHub

PHOENIX — The holiday season can be magical anywhere, but a personal finance website ranked which Arizona cities rise above the rest to spend Christmas in this year.

According to WalletHub, Phoenix is the best big city in the state to celebrate Christmas this year.

Arizona’s capital city knocked Tucson out of the top spot in the state from last year and was ranked No. 21 nationally for the best place for Christmas.

Scottsdale (No. 24) was the second-best city in the state to celebrate the holiday, followed by Tucson (No. 38), Chandler (No. 78), Gilbert (No. 81), Glendale (No. 84) and Mesa (No. 85).

WalletHub compared the 100 most-populated cities in the country based on five key dimensions to calculate the rankings: traditions and fun, observance, generosity, shopping and costs.

Phoenix was among the top 20 for shopping and traditions and fun, while Scottsdale was No. 12 for generosity.

Among those dimensions were 32 indicators, such as Christmas tree farms per capita, where Gilbert tied with four other cities for the top spot.

The best city in the country to celebrate Christmas this year is Seattle, Washington, according to WalletHub, while Las Vegas, Nevada, is the worst.
