Welcome to the Verde Valley
The Verde Valley stretches from Mingus Mountain– just east of Prescott
Valley––to the Mogollon Rim, south of Flagstaff.
The 1,200 square miles of the Verde Valley encompasses the cities of
Cottonwood, Clarkdale, Jerome, Camp Verde, Sedona, Cornville, Lake
Montezuma/Rimrock and the Verde Villages, a large unincorporated
community.
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.
Inpatient and outpatient medical needs are served by Verde Valley Medical
Center, located in Cottonwood. The 99-bed facility, founded in 1939,
continues to anticipate the medical needs of its growing population by
service development and expansion.
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.
