About Sonora


Pinnacle Aerospace is located in Ciudad Obregon, Sonora, about a 2 hour flight south of Phoenix. It is conveniently accessible from many major US and Mexican cities.  And with over 500,000 people living in the area it is the second largest city in Sonora boasting:
  • A modern power and fiber optic data infrastructure
  • 40 hotels (several 4 star)
  • 33 restaurants
  • 14 supermarkets
  • 8 hospitals (3 public and 5 private)
  • One 18 hole golf course
While only 40 minutes to the beaches and resorts of San Carlos, Ciudad Obregon enjoys a mild dry climate with an average annual temperature of 76 degrees and rainfall of 14.5 inches.  And with a low crime rate, it is considered a very livable city and a safe place to raise a family.  Established industries such as textiles, electronic components, digital imaging, call/help centers, telecommunication and software help stabilize the local economy resulting in a very low turnover rate (<2%).

And the education system is first rate.  There are 6 major public and private universities and 4 technical schools in the area graduating over 700 software engineers and technicians annually (includes Hermosillo, a 2 hour drive north of Obregon).  English is taught on the college campuses and is spoken in most hotels and restaurants throughout the city.
