Yavapai County |
The county seat of Yavapai County, Arizona, is Prescott. The county population on July 1, 1999, was 152,957, an increase of 45,243 over the 1990 census.
Before being divided, Yavapai County, was the largest single county ever created in the United States. The domain was approximately 65,000 square miles. Yavapai County covered more than half the Territory of Arizona that was laid out in 1864.
Yavapai County is known as the "Mother of Counties," for most of its present day fourteen counties were taken wholly or in part from the original Yavapai. Present day counties partially formed from old Yavapai are Pinal, Graham, Greenlee, Maricopa, and Mohave.
