Florence, Arizona, situated in Pinal County, is one of the state's oldest towns, established in 1866 by Colonel Levi Ruggles. Nestled 61 miles southeast of Phoenix along the Gila River, it serves as the county seat and boasts a rich historical tapestry. Florence is renowned for its National Historic District, which includes over 25 buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places, reflecting its past as a mining and agricultural center. The town's history intertwines with the Hohokam people, who once farmed the fertile lands, and later with the influx of settlers following the Gadsden Purchase. Today, Florence maintains a balance between preserving its historic charm with structures like the 1876 Pinal County Courthouse and fostering growth, evident in the development of new communities like Anthem at Merrill Ranch. The town also hosts significant events like the annual Country Thunder music festival and the Florence Jr. Parada Rodeo, combining its historical allure with modern attractions.
