I recently found maybe 6 "third place" style cafes (for laptop camping) in the entire Phoenix valley that weren't chains. Years ago, IIRC, I found none open after 5pm.

To have "local culture" you need to get people out of their cars, houses, offices. Tellingly, the best cafe I found was next to a church and affiliated somehow.
