The Southwest currently enjoys the highest new job growth rate in the country, and is number one in the creation of new high-tech jobs. Home to two of the fastest growing cities in the United States – Phoenix, with a population increase of 59 percent since 1990, and Las Vegas, growing by 6000 residents a month – the Southwest presents vast opportunities for development and investment. Tourism, the largest industry in Las Vegas, brings in more than $31 billion per year. With no corporate, franchise, or personal tax, many businesses and individuals are attracted to the state, making Las Vegas the epicenter for business in this region.
