The state has surprisingly little problem with smuggling goods from Mexico are generally targeted to markets in the Appalachians or the Californians, and Arizona is on a convenient route to neither. Because of this they don't need field a significant border patrol force, and the state therefore has that much more money to spend on internal development. There a domed city called Alpha appeared seemingly overnight (during the Collapse, when no one was watching) the purpose is remains a mystery but observers point out that Alpha has been built on the research of previous self-sustaining colonies, like the Bio 1 experiments.
