Downtown Phoenix鈥檚 growth

Phoenix is now the city in America, and overtook Philadelphia this past year to become the nation鈥檚 fifth-largest city by population.

Beyond rapid population growth, , too. 

鈥淲ith a personal income growth rate of 8.4%, Arizona tied with Montana for the fastest rate of growth in personal income in 2020,鈥 Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey said after a Bureau of Economic Statistics analysis was released earlier this year.

While the pandemic depressed the growth of Phoenix and Arizona鈥檚 hospitality industry, 鈥渂usiness- and travel-related restrictions related to COVID-19 have been less strict in Phoenix than in other markets, tourism and group business.鈥 , 鈥淚n 2020, 23 new hotels were built in Arizona despite the poor hotel performance.鈥

Arbor Lodging Partners鈥 bet on Arizona, and on Phoenix, are a preview of the post-COVID growth the state and the Valley will continue to experience as vaccinations become more widespread and the world recovers from the coronavirus.
