13. I think the President of ASU had a lot to do with that

The main campus is connected to the Downtown Phx campus. I think the plan is to connect with ASU West (stops at the old Christown Mall at 19th and Bethany now, but it looks like they are continuing north on 19th) and ASU East Valley.

I understand the unique problem with the heat, it would be hard to use the rail if you worked a quarter mile or greater off the line.

There actually some improved areas, Downtown Tempe is redeveloped with housing, business, and retail all together. The old Roosevelt section downtown has some decent coffee shops and bars so people can live and hang out in the same neighborhood, but as you stated the sprawl is mind boggling.
