Everyone seems to diss on the light rail but I am a fan. Now with that said, I know it is slow and…read moredoes not go to all the places I need to go so it is not enough to give up my car like I would, say, if I moved back to NYC. Sadly, one cannot rely on this system really to get around fully but it is great to the airport and venues downtown, especially Chase Field for a baseball game. It takes you right into Chase. ( 1-2 bucks versus 20 to 60 bucks so a good money saver) As of 1/25 it starts/end at Metro Center and ends in east mesa so you can get to Downtown Phoenix, ASU, and other points in-between. It is cheap and if you are senior even cheaper. Buck a ride for Seniors. I think 2 or 2.50 if not a senior. Airport shuttle is close to a hundred so definitely a great deal. The only down thing on the airport is our system does not have overnight parking for your car like other cities have. You will have to be able to walk or get dropped off at one of the train statins. For me, luckily I live right across the street from one Light rail station so it is nice to get me to Skyharbor. I can walk to and from. If you do not park overnight no worries there are plenty of park and ride places to catch the train. Just a tip be careful your concert or special event does not get out until late around 11pm or so and you miss the midnight last train and you get stranded. Found that out the hard way one time on my birthday. lol I was sad to see the city of Glendale stop the project because at one time it was suppose to go to State Farm Arena but no more. I work PT there and would love to take the train to work. I never understand why the 5th largest city in the USA does not have a better public transportation system. A lot of folks say the train is unsafe. Hogwash. I have never had an issue but homeless people do not bother me at all. I am not a person who is afraid of my own shadow. Sometimes on the train I have seen something new as of fall 2024 people are selling things on it. I believe that might be illegal but no one ever bothers me. That is weird and probably should not be allowed but like I said they do not bother me and i have other battles in life to worry about. Besides I am used to all that in my travels especially on the NY subways. In Mn I saw a buck or is it butt ( lol) naked guy on the train in the middle of Winter. lol and a Pick Pocket in Madrid. The adventures in travel series. I could write a book. I think the last time a woman was selling herbs or oils and perfume. Shrugs shoulders. We all gotta survive. I myself would not buy anything, especially anything edible from a stranger, but some folks were. She did not even ask me though. She just walks through announcing her wares. It did take me by surprise at first but only because that was new to me in PHX. Common in other places. I had never seen that before here locally. I am sure it might be a rare thing since security is usually tight on the train system platform, especially on big event or game days. i do not take the train often but I know people who take it daily and have zero problems with it. It is a good service if you live centralized. I wish it went to more places.

Used to take the light rail to ASU almost every day. There was a security guard who one time stood…read morenext to me during the ride and ranted about his ex wife. A few weeks later he groped me and whispered in my ear before stepping off the train. When I tried to tell the other security guards, one of them said "Well no one's ever said that about him before..." and the other one said "Man, you can't even flirt without getting in trouble these days." When I made a report on the app, there was never a follow up. I still had to see him several times a week, so he clearly wasn't fired or anything. Very disappointing and unsafe.

Maybe the tourism department will have them.

I was the Vice President of HSGP from 2020 - 2023. This is my experience with this organization…read more The Good: This is a haven for people who want to live ethical lives without the dictates of religion. They operate a Little Free Library, Little Free Pantry, blood drives, and meetings for those recovering from alcoholism and substance abuse. They make sleeping mats for homeless people, hold discussion groups, host speakers twice a month, and much more. I would also consider HSGP to be a safe place for anyone on the Q spectrum provided they are politically left. The Not So Good: Lots of contempt toward religion and anyone not on the left (e.g. conservatives, Republicans, Trump supporters, supporters of capitalism, Libertarians, etc.). In some cases, they have disinvited speakers because of who they supported for public office or things they wrote on social media even when it had little or nothing to do with what they were coming there to speak about. The contempt there is not universal, but those who speak out against it and how it contradicts humanist principles don't get much traction. Unfortunately, "Oh My! You're right! We've been doing it wrong, and we're changing our behavior immediately", said no one ever. If you're religious, not on the left, or if you truly value free thought and free speech and dislike bigotry, you're likely to find the contempt there tiresome. If you dislike religion and you consider anyone not on the left to be at best mistaken, you'll likely find a home here. A bit of caution: If you have a problem with how someone, or some group that meets there, is treating you, you might or might not get any support in dealing with that. I haven't found a definite pattern, but if you find yourself shut down for expressing incorrect opinions, you're not likely to get any support in dealing with that. They appear more likely to support the person who shut you down. For that reason, I would advise against confronting the person who wronged you unless you don't care about going there again. How much support you get might also be related to whether you're the sort who files formal complaints, but, again, no guarantees that it will go well for you. I hope that this review is helpful for anyone curious about HSGP.

Some common items you can bring in to the center are: Light bulbs Aerosol cans Motor oil Fryer oil Paint Computers and computer monitors For a complete list, go here: http://www.tempe.gov/city-hall/public-works/household-products-collection-center-hpcc/don-t-trash-it 4 days out of the year the center has a Zero Waste Day. We actually didn't even realize we had come on this season's Zero Waste Day and were pleasantly surprised by the ease of being able to drop off our items. Everything was very well organized, with different stations for each type of item you are wanting to drop off. You don't even have to get out of your car! The staff here will take everything from your car for you. The city works with several vendors (E.g., document shredding companies, Goodwill, Tempe Community Action Agency) in order to make these days a success. Zero Waste Day allows residents to drop off additional items the center wouldn't normally take. This includes: Styrofoam Food donations Clothing Paper for shredding Bicycles and bicycle parts For a more complete list, go here: http://www.tempe.gov/city-hall/public-works/recycling-and-solid-waste/recycling/zero-waste-days From the Household Products website, "As of January 2018 over 98,109 residents have dropped off items to be recycled or reused at the HPCC. Since 2005 there has been over a 205% increase in participation including over 453,366 pounds of waste collected just last year with a 94% recycling rate! Total weight diverted from the landfill and storm drains is over 4,519,637 pounds of material." Very cool! Let's keep our planet as healthy as possible by recycling and reusing what we can! Details: -Open Fridays (7-12) and Saturdays (7-1) -Right next to the Tempe Fire Training Center -4 Zero Waste Days offered a year (Jan, April, November from the website) **You will need to bring proof of residency to be able to drop off items** (Driver's license or utility bill)
