Phoenix Ranked #4 Large City in the Nation for Economic Growth

August 23, 2025

Coworking Cafe, built on the most comprehensive coworking space directory in the world, has released their latest rankings of the top-performing cities from an economic growth perspective and Phoenix (combined with Mesa in the metro area analysis) has placed #4 among large cities (population of 500K+).

Over the study period of 2019-2023, Phoenix posted 42% GDP growth, median earnings increase of 12% and topped the infrastructure category based on a 26% increase in total roadway miles. Further, Phoenix represents long-term economic resilience due to its strong performance across housing, trade and employment.

Superior, located 40 minutes east of the Phoenix Metro Area, stands to benefit from the region’s strong economic standing, as it provides an attractive location for both residents and businesses seeking the advantages of rural charm with urban access and global reach.
