Did You Know?
Central was named for the canal that flowed through the center of the valley. The town served as a trading center for Mormon farmers. At one time, alkaline groundwater rose to the surface and seemed to doom nearby farms. A drainage system brought the land back to productivity. That’s from the 1940 WPA guide to Arizona.
