Nogales, Arizona is a city on the U.S.-Mexico border in southern Arizona. Arizona’s largest international border town and the county seat of Santa Cruz County, Nogales maintains close economic and cultural ties with neighboring Nogales, Mexico.
Named after the Spanish word for “walnut,” as the surrounding valley was once home to an abundant growth of walnut trees, the city of Nogales boasts a history as rich and varied as its natural landscape. Thousands of years before the first European explorers arrived, Nogales was a stop along what was later known as El Camino Real (The King’s Road), a Native American migratory path and trade route. By the 16th century, Spanish conquistadors journeyed along the same road in search of precious metals and other bounty. Antique Spanish missions still dot the Santa Cruz river valley; the most famous of these forms the centerpiece of the 360-acre Tumacacori National Historical Park. Most of the land comprising present-day Arizona was surrendered to the United States in 1848, by which point several hardy souls had established ranches in the Nogales region. The city of Nogales has a wide range of community facilities. These include nine parks, a museum, an art gallery, a movie theater, four recreation centers, four swimming pools, eight athletic fields, a library, six tennis courts and four golf courses.

ARIZONA: FRONTIERS NEW AND OLD
A sprawling natural wonderland at the heart of the American Southwest, Arizona is also one of the fastest-growing states in the country. A vast, largely uninhabited desert landscape as recently as the early 20th century, Arizona is now home to more than five million residents. A national leader in electronics, software, aerospace engineering and agriculture among other industries, Arizona offers a flourishing economy, breathtaking natural scenery, countless options for outdoor recreation and leisure, affordable housing and a rich cultural life. From the Grand Canyon to Lake Powell, from the old frontier towns to the modern metropolis of Phoenix, Arizona is a land of great promise and boundless opportunity.
In recent times, Arizona has become a major warm-weather tourist and retirement destination, much like Florida. A major part of the tourism industry is based on the presence of the Grand Canyon. With a gorgeous natural landscape, countless historical sites, parks and museums, a booming high-tech economy, excellent state services and a progressive approach to future growth, Arizona remains a great place to live, work and explore.
Climate
Due to its great size and variations in elevation, the state of Arizona has greatly varying climate conditions from one area to another. Lowlands are predominantly desert, with very hot and dry summers, cooler nights and moderate winters. The state's northern plateau has a significantly cooler climate, with mild summers and frequent snowfall in the winter.
Population:
One of the fastest-growing states in the nation, Arizona has a population of over 6.1 million, an increase of more than 1 million since the year 2000. The state's population is largely concentrated in the metropolitan areas of Phoenix and Tucson, the state's two largest cities. While there are smaller population centers around Yuma (in the southwest corner) and Flagstaff (in north-central Arizona), vast areas of the state remain largely uninhabited, due in great part to the desert climate.
