Phoenix Job Market Resilience: Steady Growth, Rising Wages, and Diverse Opportunities
Phoenix's job market continues to demonstrate resilience with steady growth through 2025. The Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler metropolitan statistical area experienced a non-seasonally adjusted civilian labor force of 2.8 million in August, growing 1.7 percent year-over-year. Resident employment climbed 1.1 percent year-over-year to 2.6 million during the same period, with the Phoenix MSA accounting for approximately 72 percent of Arizona's total employment.
The unemployment rate in Phoenix rose to 4.2 percent in August on a non-seasonally adjusted basis, marking a 0.6 percentage point increase year-over-year and representing the year-to-date high. This uptick reflects labor force growth outpacing job gains. Seasonally adjusted nonfarm employment grew modestly, adding approximately 4,300 jobs in August to reach 2.5 million positions, though recent months showed mixed results with declines in May and June before rebounding in July and August.
Average hourly earnings in the Phoenix MSA reached 36 dollars and 60 cents in August, representing a 5.2 percent increase year-over-year and translating to roughly 76,100 dollars in annual full-time earnings. Mining and logging led industry growth with an 8.1 percent year-over-year increase, followed by other services at 3.9 percent, construction at 2.1 percent, and financial activities at 1.9 percent. The information sector experienced the steepest decline, falling 2.8 percent.
Housing permits declined significantly with total permits dropping 52.4 percent year-over-year to 1,863 in August, though total home sales rose 3.2 percent to 5,914 units. Retail sales excluding food and gasoline grew 5.4 percent year-over-year to 6.1 billion dollars, while restaurant and bar sales increased 7.3 percent.
Current job openings in the Phoenix area include a warehouse associate position with Fullscript at 20 dollars and 25 cents per hour, a contact center representative role with TD Bank ranging from 22 to 31 dollars per hour, and an executive assistant position with Parnall Law offering 85,000 to 120,000 dollars annually.
