The Arizona economy was solid through the first half of 2024. Job growth was strong, contributing to a record-low unemployment rate and a surge in the ratio of open jobs to unemployed residents. Income growth remained solid, with over-the-year growth outpacing decelerating inflation. Even so, housing affordability remained low in Arizona (and across the U.S.), in the face of significantly increased housing permit activity.
Where are the global, national, state, and local economies headed next? How fast will the Federal Reserve reduce interest rates? Will housing affordability improve with falling interest rates? Will Arizona’s labor market remain historically tight? Can asset prices continue to rise?
