Tucson continues to shine a light on the Southern Arizona region.

Despite the city’s challenges, the workforce training and development being offered at Pima Community College and the University of Arizona brings a lot of attention — and possibilities — to the Old Pueblo. Meanwhile, businesses are moving into industrial properties and retail centers across the metro region.

The combination helps make Tucson a draw for companies looking to relocate.

The Arizona Daily Star’s VISION ’25 section provides a look at the state of economic growth, workforce development, housing, manufacturing and more across Tucson, Pima County and greater Southern Arizona.

This effort is due to our sponsors, Mr. Rooter, Tucson International Airport and Tucson Media.
