Company Profile
City of Maricopa
Company Overview
The City of Maricopa, a community with a “Proud History and a Prosperous Future,” is strategically connected to metro Phoenix and the central Arizona region and is located just 20 minutes from Phoenix and 35 minutes from Sky Harbor Airport.
Maricopa became Arizona’s 88th City when it was incorporated in October of 2003. Since then, hyper-growth transformed the City from less than 5,000 residents into a bustling population of over 43,000.
Historically an agricultural community, Maricopa’s business base has translated those ties into the agri-tech, renewable energy and research and development fields.
Maricopa’s housing affordability, quality of life and family-oriented atmosphere continues to attract newcomers who enjoy full-service public safety departments, a City library, recently constructed public schools and charter schools, a City park and retail and entertainment.
Mission: The City of Maricopa will be open, responsive, and accountable while serving the public with integrity.
