About this map

Phoenix sits at the center of an expanding agricultural and military landscape where the Salt River and Gila River converge. By the late 1960s, the development of planned communities like Sun City and Youngtown signaled a major shift in the Salt River Valley’s residential character. The presence of Luke Air Force Base and its various auxiliary fields, such as Luke AF No. 1, underscores the region’s importance as a strategic defense hub.
