Traditional cowboys off the
range, modern day gold prospectors with metal detectors and those
living a rustic lifestyle in the isolated areas of the county rub
shoulders with artists, university and college students, a large
retirement population and families raising children in
the small towns
throughout the county.
Yavapai County is also
the host to a number of large national forests and great places to
ride.
Yavapai County is once again experiencing
a boom period with rapid increase in population growth. According to
the 1990 census the county population was 107,714, the population
estimate is now 129,500. The bulk of the population and the labor
force are located in the eight incorporated towns and cities which
include Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, Jerome,
Clarkdale,
Sedona, Cottonwood and Camp Verde. |
