Welcome to the Southwest
You
Valley
won’t find our community on the map, but you’ll find us a little west of Phoenix along Interstate 10. The Southwest Valley includes the cities of Avondale, Goodyear, Litchfield Park, and Tolleson. Four cities…One Destination…A modern community with a hometown feel. You can enjoy Major League Baseball, the excitement of NASCAR®, and gridiron action of the National Football League. Wander through our award-winning zoo and aquarium, hike through our mountain parks, or take a relaxing walk along the Tres Rios wildlife area. Every day is a sunny day here (well, almost every day) making it a great place for the outdoor enthusiast or winter visitor escaping the cold. Golf, tennis, swimming, fishing, and other fun is waiting for you. There’s plenty to do inside, too! Amazing entertainment centers, the most modern movie theaters, bowling, shopping, antiquing, museums, and art galleries are only some of the indoor adventures. Whether for pleasure or business, choose from the dozens of hotels and resorts to fit your needs and lifestyle. There’s a perfect spot for the entire family, a couple’s getaway, or the traveling professional. You’ll be overwhelmed with the choices in places to dine in the Southwest Valley. Fine dining, casual restaurants, darling cafés, your familiar favorites and our own hometown flavors. You better come hungry! Arts and culinary festivals, music and dance events, parades and fairs, and over one hundred other events happen each year in the Southwest Valley. Make your first stop the Southwest Valley Chamber of Commerce – a designated visitor information center. Pick up free information about the community and other attractions in Arizona. Find your best memories in the Southwest Valley!
