Arizona

Eloy is located south of Phoenix in the “Arizona’s Golden Corridor”, roughly 65 miles from downtown Phoenix and 60 miles from downtown Tucson. Eloy is a farming community and lies in one of the state’s more fertile agricultural areas. Private prison systems and agriculture are part of Eloy’s economy. Mention “Eloy” to most Arizonans and they will chuckle. The town really has not grown very much in the past 40 years. It is a serene place to live and quite different than living in the big cities. People are friendly and the pace of living is slower. Population in Eloy is around 10,800 people. The newspapers say that the growth is coming and developers are going to swallow up the land.

Decades Music Theme Park has plans to come and build a 240-acre rock ‘n’ roll theme park in Pinal County intended to rival Orlando’s Disney World complex. It will consist of rides, restaurants and hotels all built around the music from the 1950s through present day. This is just one of many more new industries coming to the area. Eloy already has one of the major sky diving centers is the country. It is called SkyDive Arizona and people from all over the country come to use this center. This year they will be hosting the USA 2008 National Parachuting Championships Oct 19-25, 2008.
