Yes, there is an Amish community in Phoenix. They mostly live in a couple of little pockets of the area known as "Sunnyslope" and are for the most part just snowbirds, here for the winter just like so many other people. I do not think there are any old order Amish but they are Amish none the less. They wear the traditional clothing and do not own cars, and you will see them riding bicycles or walking. They take cabs if they need to go far. Their housing is provided by Mennonites who own a small trailer park in Sunnyslope and a street of houses, they are equipped with cooling heating and lighting but the Amish are just renting these homes for the winter and it is acceptable to them to use the amenities. Some of them are here for health reasons as well.
Unfortunately there is no true Amish society in Arizona, the group that lives here does not farm or really truly follow the Amish ways. Some are very wealthy. They just find ways to operate there business that seem to edge around their rules.

How do the Amish deal with natural disasters?
The Amish help each other out in most cases, whether it is a natural disaster, accident, or vandalism. The Amish will rebuild most structures the same or better than before, sometimes the materials are donated by other members as well. Depending on size of the structure, not only will members in the community contribute, but Amish from other communities will travel at their own expense to aid. This has been a temptation to some Amish men, who set buildings on fire on purpose so the community will believe there was a disaster of fate and rebuild new.
