City of Prescott, Arizona - Everybody's Home Town

Prescott, Arizona

The city of Prescott is the place to be for visitors, residents, educational institutions, businesses and government! Its locality places it in the middle of the natural beauty of north central Arizona. Rock and mountain formations such as Thumb Butte, the Granite Dells and Granite Mountain are nearby, and the towering San Francisco Peaks of Flagstaff are easily seen from Prescott. Nearby lakes such as Watson, Willow, Lynx and Goldwater, coupled with many forested trails, provide ample opportunities for the outdoor enthusiasts.

Prescott also offers the modern features that you would expect to find in a growing community, such as a variety of shopping and dining establishments, quality housing, award-winning educational institutions and outstanding medical facilities. Still, its western roots are deep, and one only needs to be here each July at rodeo time to see just how deep

Come and see for yourself why Prescott has been recognized over and over by national media as one of the premier places to visit, reside in and establish a business.
