Grow with the PHX East Valley.

The economic growth and superior quality of life found in the PHX East Valley didn’t just happen overnight.

From thriving cultural opportunities to amazing recreation areas with an ideal climate, the PHX East Valley has developed into the place where individuals want to work, live and play.

Growth.

From farming communities to major business and employment centers, the PHX East Valley’s seven cities and towns are coming of age.

Apache Junction, Chandler, Fountain Hills, Gilbert, Mesa, Queen Creek and Tempe boast a combined population of more than 1.4 million people, with another 400,000 people expected to settle in the region by 2050.

But the population tells only part of the story. The region is home to high-paying jobs in a diversity of industries—from aviation and aerospace and defense to advanced manufacturing and autonomous vehicles, plus healthcare, higher education, technology and tourism.

Jobs are also plentiful here. The region is coming off some of its best years yet, with a labor force that is now nearly 700,000 workers strong. Economists project that the PHX East Valley will add 300,000 new jobs in the next 30 years.

The PHX East Valley transformation did not happen by accident. Instead, it has been a well-orchestrated effort by municipal, business and community partners who believe that working together to achieve a common goal is more productive than going it alone.
