Jerome, Arizona -
Population 400, give or take
a few and of course including
cats and dogs.
This small ghost
town/artist colony/hippie hang-out was once a
thriving old west mining town. Now it is a funky
tourist destination with unique characters,
stories and happenings.
Jerome has always been to me
like Cicely on
Northern
Exposure. (I have created a Northern
Exposure Page)
The people are educated yet
eccentric, rugged individualists yet seek some
type of community.
Even the people
of the past were the same - fascinating how
some things don't change.
In creating this website, I
wanted to show visitors everything Jerome has to
offer, not just promote those who pay to be on a
site or who have joined the Chamber. This is
Jerome's all inclusive source for places to eat,
sleep and play.
If anybody has information
they want to add about Jerome to this site,
please feel free to send it to me and I will
consider it.
If you just love historic
mining towns and ghost towns, you might want to
look at these books for more information.
Historic Towns and
Mining Books.
