  • Phoenix, PHOENIX Obviously, Is Blessed in the Sunshine Department
    SEASONS Mother Nature smiles on some cities more than others. Phoenix, PHOENIX obviously, is blessed in the sunshine department. Phoenix basks in sunshine more than any other major metropolitan area in the U.S. — during 85 percent of its daylight hours. And the cliché ARIZONA that “it’s a dry heat” rings true, too: Humidity levels are pleasantly low, even in summer. The bottom line: Any time is a good time to visit the Sonoran Desert. WINTER During the winter months Greater Phoenix enjoys blue skies and highs in the 60s and 70s. Winter nights in the desert can get chilly, though the temperature rarely dips below freezing. SPRING Phoenix’s weather is consistently perfect during springtime. Daytime temperatures loll around 80 degrees, while evenings are comfortably cool. Spring is when hikers hit the trails to see blooming cactuses and wildflowers, and baseball fans flock to stadiums across the metro area for Cactus League Spring Training. SUMMER Summertime temps routinely reach triple digits in summer, but a 100-degree day in the desert actually feels much more pleasant than Average Temperatures in Phoenix an 85-degree day in a locale with heavy humidity. The best thing about summer in Phoenix: It’s value season. Prices at resorts, hotels and golf courses plunge as much as 30 percent. HIGH LOW (° F/ °C) (° F/ °C) FALL January 67/19 44/7 Autumn days in Phoenix are warm, sunny and exceedingly pleasant. It’s a great time for recreational pursuits, off-season sunbathing and serious February 71/22 48/9 shopping. Nights can get cool, but patio dining and outdoor events are March 76/24 52/11 still comfortable.

Pollack & Company has been retained to provide an economic evaluation of the development potential of the area surrounding Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport in Mesa, Arizona. The study area that is the focus of this analysis is referred to as the Land Use Evaluation Area and includes approximately 33 square miles of land. Because of its large scale, the implementation of a successful development plan will be of benefit not just to the City of Mesa residents, but to the broader region as well. Analytical Framework This analysis begins with a macroeconomic assessment of the overall commercial real estate market in Metro Phoenix. The study then narrows in focus and includes an evaluation of recently released population and employment projections from the Maricopa Association of Governments on the more proximate region. This analysis concludes with the development of alternative scenarios of growth in the Southeast Valley and, more specifically, to the market area surrounding Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport.
