Phoenix has benefited from a hot housing market and a relatively low cost of 
living. The state has done a good job attracting technology firms, 
particularly biotech. "There is a fair amount of migration from southern 
California into Phoenix, both in terms of companies moving that way and 
households," says Cochrane of Moody's Economy.com. It's basically a cheaper 
way to live in California: "In the heat of the summer, families can still 
vacation on the West Coast and escape the heat."
