COMING SOON! A Virtual Tour of Clarkdale, AZ Clarkdale began as mining camp and smelter town. Ore hauled from mines in Jerome went to Clarkdale for processing and many of the employees of the mine resided there. Lower Clarkdale housed the miners, while upper Clarkdale was reserved for those higher up in the corporation. Still, today Clarkdale retains it’s feel of a former company town and the City of Clarkdale and residents alike are active in preserving and protecting that heritage. New construction has been slow to come to the outskirts of Clarkdale, but there are now to new home communities offering homes for sale in the City of Clarkdale; Verde Highlands and Mountain Gate by Empire communities. Taking a trip through the neighborhoods in downtown Clarkdale is like taking a trip to yesteryear. Clarkdale homes are well built, in amazing condition, and highly sought after by those with a love affair for the coziness of a historic home. Brick bungalows with wrought iron fencing and neatly manicured lawns characterize the city of Clarkdale. Clarkdale comes alive around all holidays and the city shoves off the business of business in favor of families and good wholesome fun, closing Main Street for annual events such as Halloween, and the 4th of July Parade. Thousands of children from all over the Verde Valley will come to Clarkdale for an old fashioned evening of trick or treating. The Verde River runs through the City of Clarkdale, but there is not a large availability of riverfront properties in Clarkdale. Large tracts of land in and around Clarkdale are still currently owned by mining corporations. 2002 population estimates for Clarkdale were approximately 4600 residents. |
