El Mirage-Arizona

Settled by migrant farm workers in 1937 on the west bank of the Agua Fria River, El Mirage was incorporated in 1951.

The City of El Mirage is one of the small cities in the Valley of the Sun. Its small town atmosphere is typical of embracing family traditions and culture.

Area attractions consist of the Sundome Center for the Performing Arts, West Valley Art Museum, White Tank Mountain Regional Park, and the Wildlife World Zoo.

As of the 2000 census, El Mirage-Arizona has a population of more than 7,500 residents. It is a hot spot because many are moving to the area with its large master planned communities and properties in mature quiet neighborhoods.

Coping with the expansion and developments, El Mirage continues to hold on to its friendly southwestern attitude.

Southwest of El Mirage is the Luke Air Force Base, a major employer. This base is the largest jet training base in the entire world, and home to the 56th Fighter Wing.

El Mirage celebrates the annual “Luke Days” held at the base, a spectacular air show display.

Located in the middle of the Northwest Valley, the city is centrally located amid other cities - the City of Surprise to the north, the City of Peoria to the east, the Cities of Glendale and Avondale to the south, and the White Tank Mountains to the west.
