Welcome to the Verde Valley 
The Verde Valley stretches from Mingus Mountain
-- east of Prescott -- to the Mogollon Rim, south of Flagstaff.
The 1,200 square miles of the Verde Valley encompasses the municipalities
of Cottonwood, Clarkdale, Jerome, Camp Verde, and Sedona, and the unincorporated
communities of Cornville, Lake Montezuma/Rimrock and Verde Village.
Elevations range from approximately 3,000 feet above sea level in historic
Camp Verde, to more than 5,000 in the former mining town (and now thriving
artist community) of Jerome.
The wide variety of elevations is reflected by an equally wide variety
of terrain. Although geographically described as "high desert",
newcomers are surprised to note that term includes: mountains, beautiful
wild flowers, forests of cedars and junipers, creeks and rivers!
The Verde Valley lifestyle is casual and family oriented. Residents enjoy
great recreational opportunities - hiking, biking, camping, hang-gliding,
and kayaking, to name just a few.
Cottonwood lies 100 miles
north of Phoenix shopping, performing arts, sports centers and universities
(including Arizona State University) and 45 miles south of Flagstaff skiing,
shopping and Northern Arizona University.
