Prescott Valley is located in Yavapai County

Prescott Valley is located about 80 miles northwest of Phoenix. This community lies between the Bradshaw and Mingus mountains 5,100 feet above the desert plains. Pronghorn antelope still travel throughout the town in spite of its tremendous growth. Since 1990, Prescott Valley, one of Arizona's fastest growing communities, has gone from a population of 8,858 to more than 20,000.  Nearby developments outside the town limits increase the population to 66,000, according to Prescott Valley Officials.

Commercial businesses are popping up in every direction with a heavy concentration along Highway 69. A planned new downtown, regional shopping center and cross-town highway will offer a variety of new opportunities over the next few years.

Prescott Valley has just completed a state-of-the-art sewage treatment plant, sewer system, roads project and natural gas lines that will take the community well into the 21st century. A third long range plan has been completed for this 27-year old community and a new police and court facility has been constructed, as well as the new Civic Center which includes the Town hall and Library.

The town was founded in 1966, incorporated in 1978, and residents expect it to become a major city in the near future. However, town leaders say Prescott Valley will never lose its small town, friendly approach to people and business.
