There's lots of growth going on in Arizona, mostly in Phoenix area.  Most of the growth comes from the retirees coming for the warmer weather and to retire there also.   There's about 3.8 million people living in greater Phoenix metro area. 


The weather there in the summer is very hot..averaging 100 degrees in the desert and it's cooler in the mountains up North with averaging of 70's to 80's.  


Cost of living there isn't bad, and it's rising pretty high averaging nearly $300,000 for a average house in Phoenix.   It's very cheap to live out in middle of nowhere but you would have to drive very far to buy food and things in a good sized city.  


Car theft is the highest in the nation in Phoenix.  You might take the light rail instead to work.  They have the light rail under construction and will complete in 2008, I think.


You would probably get better details from a Arizona resident...there's a few on Alldeaf so they might tell you more than I do.   :)
