April 18, 2019 edition of The Wilcox Report
Today the U.S. Census Bureau delivered their report on population growth in the United States. Out of the 3,142 counties in the United States Maricopa County had the largest increase in population. As predicted this is the third year in row that Maricopa County has led all counties with the greatest increase in population. Year-over-year the U.S. Census Bureau showed the population of Maricopa County increasing by 81,244 or 222 people per day. This increase of 222 per day outshined last year’s report by 20 or ten percent more people per day when the population grew by 202 per day.
Today’s release by the U.S. Census Bureau substantiates that Maricopa County (Greater Phoenix) is a top destination for employers locating and relocating their operations in Maricopa County to take advantage of our population growth.
Even though Maricopa County (Greater Phoenix) is one of the most competitive markets in the country to be a real estate agent it also shows that there is tremendous opportunity for agents because of the growth in population and jobs.
