WESTMARC and CBRE In-Depth Report
The Western Maricopa Coalition (WESTMARC) has unveiled a new report entitled “The West Valley – Surrounded by Innovation”—a comprehensive study that underscores accelerating economic momentum and strong positioning for future business investment. Produced in partnership with CBRE’s Arizona research team, the report presents a compelling case for why the West Valley is becoming a magnet for growth, highlighting its population expansion—currently double the national rate—along with a dynamic, young, and diverse labor pool, 65% of whom are of working age. It also emphasizes the West Valley’s strategic location with direct access to major transportation networks and modern infrastructure, as well as significant growth across high-impact industries such as advanced manufacturing (including the semiconductor products sector), healthcare, and technology. The report serves as an insightful resource for investors, developers, and companies seeking to capitalize on one of the fastest-growing regions in the country.
