Casa Grande Is the Place to Build
Located in the Heart of the Arizona Innovation and Technology Corridor, Casa Grande serves as the manufacturing, logistics, health care, retail and commercial hub for Pinal County, conveniently located between the state's major metropolitan areas of Phoenix and Tucson. Casa Grande is less than 30 minutes from Phoenix and 45 minutes from Tucson, making our City ideal for servicing both markets that boast a population of 5.5 million people.
Casa Grande has thousands of acres of developable land in its Industrial Corridor, pre-zoned for industrial uses and available at a fraction of the cost of metro-area lands. Most of this land has utilities to the site, immediately adjacent to it or in close proximity. This reduces upfront costs for project development and construction.
Because of our proximity to the metro areas, companies located in Casa Grande have access to a highly educated and skilled workforce of over 3 million. The City works closely with state workforce experts Arizona@Work to help ensure local companies have access to the talent needed for immediate and future hires. In addition, Central Arizona College provides customized training specifi c to company workforce needs.
Connectivity plays a big role in why companies choose Casa Grande. It is the only community in the state directly served by two major interstates (I-8 and I-10), the main line of the Union Pacific Railroad, and is within 1 hour of 3 international airports. The City is also situated less than 8 hours from the Port of Long Beach, 3 hours from the Port of Entry in San Luis, and 2 hours from the Port of Entry in Nogales. This provides easy access to markets in California, the rest of the Southwest, and Mexico. There is simply no better-connected community in the state.
Our Industrial Corridor is home to numerous manufacturing and logistics companies that can take advantage of incentives associated with federally recognized Opportunity and Foreign Trade Zones and New Market Tax Credits. The City employs an effective development team approach to all new projects/companies. Our team provides direct access to decision-makers who review and approve business plans and permits. We proactively communicate with your representatives to expedite all review processes.
Casa Grande also enjoys a low cost of living, 25% to 50% lower than metro areas. It provides a high quality of life featuring clean air, beautiful night skies, and over 300 days of sunshine to support an abundance of outdoor recreational opportunities. It is less congested, allowing you to drive anywhere in the community within 15 minutes. There are great educational options and a robust healthcare system, anchored by Banner Casa Grande Medical Center and Sunday Life Family Health Center, and includes over 25 specialties.
Casa Grande offers strategic company benefits, workforce solutions, and high quality of living. This is why Lucid Motors and so many other advanced manufacturing and logistics companies have chosen to call Casa Grande "home." They have all come to the same conclusion - Casa Grande makes sense!
