The Pueblo Grande Museum and Archaeological Parks is the site of the ruins of a 1,500-year-old Hohokam village. Here visitors can explore the ruins and see reproductions of the people’s homes as they were hundreds of years ago. They can also explore exhibits highlighting the now-extinct Hohokam culture.

Many of the Valley’s gated master planned communities are built where cotton once grew. Subdivisions have sprouted up on farmland in all directions. Areas that were once rural are now home to a more diverse population, who enjoy amenities that were previously out of their budget.
