Better educated, better mix of industries. Phoenix is great in winter, but seems more dependent on retirees.
I wish people would squash that untruth and apparently I need to keep repeating myself. While there are certain suburbs that may attract retirees and snowbirds, Phoenix is largely not dependent on retirees and its median age is about 3 years younger than the national average.
If the west coast suddenly disappeared, most of the cities would be gone. El Paso and Tulsa isn't in the west coast. (BTW, the west coast stretches to New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana).

The city of Phoenix has one of the youngest populations percentage wise in the U.S. , your confusing a few cities in the West Valley with larger senior citizen populations for a metro of 4.4 million.
Better educated? University of Denver over Arizona State University? I think not...

"University of Denver over Arizona State University"
Why yes it is! As is CU and Colorado School of Mines! And any list you can find will show that Denver has a much higher percentage of its populace with a BS or above. So again, Yes! Denver is a better educated and more fit city!
