This is a joke? Right?

Yes.

I mean can you live there and not have airconditioning in your
place?

Yes, but you don't want to.

I'll be there within two weeks. I anticipate temperatures to be 'tween
108° and 113°F. Higher won't surprise me.

People do it every day but, not if they can help it...

Temps are routinely 105 - 112 F, sometimes higher ... AC is nice.

Sure, all the inmates at Sherif Joe's "Tent City" are serving their
time without AC. But it's not very comfortable ...

Yes. Can you tolerate 145 degree temperatures indoors?

Electricity for AC costs about $130-150/month for a 1000 sq ft. apartment
not on the top level.

Having AC in phoenix is as necessary as heat for a montana winter.

It already hit 113 two weeks ago. It'll be pushing past 115 in about
few weeks with lows over 100. It's a little weird going out at
11pm and seeing the temperature over 105.

You can certainly live there without air conditioning. Not comfortably,
perhaps, but it will not normally affect your survival as long as you
pay attention to hydration.

Usually swamp coolers are not considered as air conditioning and they
can be effective in amelioration the daytime temperatures. Outdoors
misting systems have a similar effect.

Folks live in climates like Phoenix without air conditioning. Not
easily though.

Certainly many years ago people did just that, but I doubt you'd
consider it "living". Consider that temps may reach 115F. Or, on
occasion, higher.
