Arizona is hardly unique in having only one giant/large metro area: UT, CO, GA, NV, WA, OR, IL, IN, HI, MN, MI to name a few. Then you have states like WY, ID, AK, ND, KS, IA, NB where there is also only one metro area, but it barely cracks half a million if that. I don't think Phoenix's size is a drawback for AZ. Of course that's just my opinion.
Also, don't forget we also have Tucson, which while not giant, is still a million in the metro area.
