JEROME, ARIZONA
Jerome sits a mile above the hot Arizona desert. Far removed from it’s past as a ghost town there’s still lots to see here, whether you’re into art, history, or just want to view the breathtaking vistas below. This historic copper mining town was once known as the wickedest town in the West. Jerome is now a bustling tourist magnet and artistic community with a small population. It hasn’t changed much in nearly 100 years and many of the buildings have been restored from fires years ago.
