In addition to getting rid of the sanctuary city policy in Phoenix, in 2010 two other things happened that have greatly impacted crime in Arizona generally. Opinions vary on which measure had the most favorable impact.
SB-1070 cracked down on illegal immigrants. Even though the courts have never allowed it to be implemented fully, enough of it took effect that a lot of illegals decided that AZ was not the best place to be.
The other thing that happened in 2010 was that AZ became a constitutional carry state. Car jacker became a decidedly dangerous occupation.
Bottom line is, Arizona is doing a number of things right. Now if we could just get a decent Senator....

Yes I am sure you are right about the combination of things. That is why a real border/immigration enforcement needs to be layered to be effective.

And, Arizona had Sheriff Arpaio to do the enforcement.
