Yuma, AZ

united states

Yuma sits in Arizona's southwest corner where the Colorado River meets the Gila River, just miles from California and Mexico. Interstate 8 runs east-west through town, connecting to San Diego (170 miles) and Phoenix (180 miles). The city sees over 300 sunny days yearly, with scorching summers and mild winters that attract snowbirds. The historic Siphon Bridge carries railroad tracks directly over the Colorado River where Old West travelers once risked dangerous river crossings.
