San Pedro Golf Course

Economic Impact Study

The study, commissioned by Southeast Arizona Economic Development Group (SAEDG) and conducted by US Economic Research, provides an estimate of the impacts of San Pedro Golf Course and Benson City Grille on the economy of Benson, Arizona. The study combines revenue and usage data from San Pedro Golf Course and Benson City Grille for Fiscal Year 2024 with results of an online survey of 260 San Pedro Golf Course and Benson City Grille users conducted in September 2024.


Survey results, combined with golf course usage and revenue data, indicate San Pedro Golf Course (including Benson City Grille) brought an estimated $3.5 million in spending to Benson in FY 2024. That is money spent in Benson that otherwise would not be (if not for San Pedro Golf Course). Of that, 78.9% or $2.76 million was spent at Benson businesses other than San Pedro Golf Course and Benson City Grille. Industries most impacted were construction at $636,719, grocery stores at $513,470, long-term rentals (apartments, houses, RV parks, etc.) at $357,355, transportation (gasoline, fuel, vehicle maintenance and repairs) at $299,416, retail stores (non-grocery) at $264,500, and restaurants and bars (other than Benson City Grille) at $258,216.
