Peoria, Arizona is centrally located between culture of Phoenix and the beauty of Sedona, Jerome and Prescott - making it great place to live and visit. With attractions like the Salt River and the Challenger Space Center, people come from all over Arizona to visit Peoria. The Salt River offers recreation such as boating, fishing, cruises, wildlife watching, picknicking and a variety of other water activity. This city was founded by William J. Murphy, a man who was interesting in taking advantage of the fertile lands surrounding the Salt River. Once established, Murphy went east to interest people in moving to this potentially prosperous town, and succeeded in bringing a variety of people over from Peoria, Illinois—hence the city’s interesting name, Peoria. Once settled, Peoria became a thriving farming community and eventually turned into the suburban success that it is today. Whether working, playing, living or catching a Mariners and Padres Spring Training game- Peoria is the place to be!
