As one of the primary beneficiaries of the massive shift in the U.S. population from north to south, the Phoenix metro has had little difficulty finding workers; the challenge, though, is attracting high-paying jobs. Phoenix claims five Fortune 500 headquarters, including Freeport-McMoRan, Republic Services, Insight Enterprises, Avnet and PetSmart. Construction, high-tech manufacturing, healthcare and tourism dominate the Phoenix economy. The local economy has strengthened since the recession, with retail sales projected above 8 percent this year and hotel occupancy levels rising. High-tech manufacturing has been a powerful driver in the local economy for two decades. The region’s relatively low cost of doing business has encouraged several manufacturers to remain and expand in the area, while luring others. The strengthening economy is drawing job seekers to the area, boosting the housing market. Phoenix offers a lower cost of living than other metros its size, a moderate climate and a variety of recreational and cultural activities.
