Fountain Hills and the McDowell Mountain Backdrop
Fountain Hills occupies a valley east of Scottsdale, surrounded on three sides by the McDowell Mountains and the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation. The town's centerpiece is the fountain in Fountain Park, which shoots water up to 560 feet during scheduled displays, making it one of the tallest fountains in the world when operating at full power. C.V. Wood, who helped build Disneyland, developed the community in the early 1970s. The town incorporated in 1989.
The population hovers around 24,000. The demographic skews older and wealthier than the Phoenix metro average, with a median household income well above the state figure. Custom homes on the hillsides overlooking the lake and fountain command high prices. The town has no industrial base to speak of; most residents commute to Scottsdale or the East Valley for work.
The McDowell Mountain Regional Park borders the town to the north, offering over 21,000 acres of trails for hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. The Fort McDowell Casino and We-Ko-Pa Golf Club sit on adjacent tribal land. Each November, the town hosts the Fountain Hills Great Fair, one of the largest art festivals in Arizona.
The town lacks a major employer within its borders; the economy runs on retail, services, and the resort properties that capitalize on the desert setting. The Fountain Hills Unified School District operates local schools. The community's relative isolation from the Phoenix freeway grid gives it a quieter feel than other East Valley towns, despite being only 30 minutes from central Scottsdale.
