Arizona, the 48th of the United States, is located in the desert Southwest on the US border with Mexico, bounded by Utah, New Mexico, Nevada, and California. It achieved statehood in 1912 with its capital at Phoenix, following prolonged conflicts with the native Apache peoples.

Most of the land is arid plateau, with mining and ranching remaining prominent industries along with manufacturing and handicrafts. It is also home to the Grand Canyon. More than one quarter of Arizona is designated as Indian reservation.

This category contains sites listed in topical subcategories as well as links to other geographic categories.


Arts and Entertainment

Submit sites of statewide significance or for multiple locations in more than one area in this state concerning arts and entertainment, and having to do with activities, businesses, events, institutions, venues, performers, professionals, and organizations.

Business and Economy

Real estate agents may list one site only, in the locality where their office is physically located, and should not submit at the state level. Brokerages may also list one site at the locality where their office is located, or at a higher level when there are multiple offices in more than one locality. The state level category is only for companies with multiple offices in more than one metro area. Companies will be listed no more than once in any case. Multiple submissions of the same or an alternate URL can lead to an agent or company being banned from the directory.

If an agent changes offices or a description change is needed, go back one page, click Update URL, and submit the corrected information in that way, not as a new submission.

Format Site Title As Follows
(for an agent site:) Agent Name - Company Name

If your site is not statewide in focus, please submit to the appropriate region, county, or locality category.

If your site focuses on a specific community, please submit to the appropriate category for that community.

This category is for listing sites that concern the make up of the local community: its people, its history, and resources and institutions that serve the people. Subjects include religion, clubs and lodges, reunions, women, men, seniors, kids, teens, activism, alternative sexuality, genealogy, and personal home pages.

Transportation

Websites that deal with individual limosine companies should be submitted to the /Transportation subategory of the community where the main office is located.
