The nearest city, about 90 minutes from Flagstaff to the main South Entrance to The Grand Canyon. So there is a lot of tourism related activity there. Also, people getting away from the heat of the Phoenix area, the storied Route 66, and a gateway of sorts to Monument Valley (think the setting of the Roadrunner cartoons). Some really spectacular scenery all around.

It's one of my favorite work-related destinations, I've been there quite a bit over the years.
