From The Business Journal of Phoenix:

Arizona added 119,200 jobs between over the last 12 months and 5,500 new jobs between August and September of this year, according to new numbers from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Those year-over-year jobs numbers rank fourth in the U.S. behind only Florida, Texas and California. Those states have far larger populations than Arizona.

Arizona posted larger September 2005 to September 2006 job gains than more populous states such as New York and Massachusetts.

Arizona also had the third-highest percentage job growth over the last two years, behind only Nevada and Utah. Arizona had held one of the top two spots for some time.
