Economy of Arizona

Arizona's Meteor Crater is a tourist attraction.

The Economy of Arizona had a total gross state product $508 billion in 2023.[1] The composition of the state's economy is moderately diverse; although health care, transportation and the government remain the largest sectors.

Arizona's per capita income was $61,652 in 2023, ranking 33rd in the U.S.[2] The state had a median household income of $74,568, making it 19th in the country and just below the U.S. national mean.[3]

Early in its history, Arizona's economy relied on the "five C's": copper (see Copper mining in Arizona), cotton, cattle, citrus, and climate (tourism). Copper is still extensively mined from many expansive open-pit and underground mines, accounting for two-thirds of the nation's output.
