Sedona Arizona
The city of Sedona is located in Arizona’s high desert under the towering southwestern rim of the vast Colorado Plateau spreading across the boundaries of two north central Arizona counties, Coconino and Yavapai. The rim country of Flagstaff is 30 miles north of Sedona. Established in 1902, the town’s name was taken from an early settler, Sedona Schnebly, who was the wife of Theodore Carl Schnebly, the one who established a post office in the area. It was incorporated in 1988.
Sedona currently has a population of 10,900 based on the 2004 U.S. Census with majority of the population living in Yavapai County. Breath-taking panoramas, a mild climate, plenty of sunshine and clean fresh-air can be seen and felt at the mouth of Oak Creek Canyon and at the center of the State’s legendary Red Rock Country. After the Grand Canyon, the area is considered the second most visited site in the State of Arizona. It is a hub for visitors in the northern Arizona area.
