Analysis: Phoenix Is A Top Market For Remote Work

Phoenix is one of the top markets in the country for remote work, according to a new analysis.

The venture capital firm Telstra Ventures looked at job postings between April 1 and June 30 of this year in various American cities and found more than 19% of those in Phoenix offered remote options; only San Diego and Columbus, Ohio had a higher percentage.

To learn why that might be and what it means for the Valley’s economy and labor market, The Show spoke with Patrick Ptak, senior vice president of executive initiatives at the Arizona Commerce Authority.
