The summer days are longer in the Northern hemisphere and due to the tilt, this means longer days in the sun, and more time in the heat. Elevation also plays a role in the temperature. Higher elevations tend to keep places cooler, but lower elevations mean places stay hot. A lot of parts of Arizona sits at low elevation.
Phoenix for example, sits at 1, feet, which is pretty low. These two combined make the heat stay all year round in Arizona. Arizona is a great place to live even if it is hot.
