Arizona has the 17th highest price level of the 51 states and territories the Bureau of Economic Analysis measures: 1 percent over the national average overall. The premium is concentrated in housing, at 7 percent over, while goods sit 5 percent under and services 3 percent over. That matters more than the headline number, because housing is the part a tax-free stipend is meant to cover and the rest comes out of taxed wages.
| Metro | Open contracts | Median weekly | Rent, 1 bed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gilbert | 3 | $2,129 | $2,220/mo |
| Mesa | 2 | $1,985 | $1,660/mo |
| Tucson | 1 | $2,415 | $1,050/mo |
Rent is the one-bedroom Fair Market Rent HUD publishes for that metro, which is what a housing stipend is trying to cover. The open-contract count beside each metro is the sample its median rests on, and outside the largest markets that sample is small: a median over one or two contracts is a single posting's rate rather than a market rate, so read the count first.
