No offense, but if you’re in Arizona, etc, why plant grass? Okay, I understand an area of grass. Go to your local garden center or university Extension service for recommendations on best grasses for the area.
BUT, at least in Arizona and much of the southwest, water is finite. Please plan only a section of the green stuff, which needs constant (and ever diminishing) water and plant some of the fabulous Native plants that are available to give you a gorgeous and exotic landscape.
Please please please. Keep down your allergies too
Fescue re popular in my area and do well. I reseeded my backyard in fescue and clover for the dogs and is doing quite well with a minimum amount of water.

None. Do some studying at the library about xeroscaping (not sure of the name) but it involves using native plants and materials that won't need watering. Cooperate with nature rather than fighting the inevitable.
Go to your local nursery and ask them what grows best in your area.
This link has some other good ideas, but I agree with Naomie fescue grass would be best. https://californiasodcenter.com/blog/select-the-perfect-type-of-grass
Actually, the same moral dilemma applies.
The site below can get you in touch with yard/garden experts in your area, and For your area. I personally love free and intelligent advice (sort of free since you pay taxes). Good luck.
