This depends on who sets the curfew - your parents or the city where you live. Parental curfew's are discretionary. Meaning, it is up to your parents what time they want you in the house.
In the City of Phoenix curefew is 10 pm for kids under 16 and midnight for kids over 18.
Visit the City of Phoenix website for more information on city laws and specific curfew definitions.

Curfew?! What a stupid idea! Even kids should have their freedom of going and coming whenever. Parental control is fine, but we don't need a supervisor state! Today curfew, tomorrow video cameras, daily ID-checks, the right to be outside will be considered a privilege...

There should only be a curfew for school nights, it's different on weekends, it's your time to be wild.
