Below is an incredible graph. States have let their infrastructure go to hell and it is costing consumers a ton of money in car damages. Take a look below to see what your state is costing you.
I also pulled cities within the Metro Phoenix market to see what individual cities are costing us.
1—Lack of fixing roads is costing every driver hundreds of dollars per year (yes, this is a pet peeve of mine).
2—Some states are spending less than 5% on road repairs.
3—Bridges are next as they were built to last a long time but states are not keeping pace with the repairs required to make them structurally sound.
Infrastructure makes a huge difference when it comes to real estate value. Are the roads leading to your building always under construction? How will poor bridges affect your employees’ commute? Want to talk more? Give me a call.
