Eloy
is a small city located in Pinal County in southern Arizona, between Phoenix and Tucson. It lies just southeast of the town of Casa Grande. As of 2005, the population was 10,855. Eloy is one of the most rapidly growing communities in the state. It is expected that over the next decade, many new homes, businesses and industries will be built in the city. The scenic area and mild climate make it ideal for retirees, as well as growing families. The City of Elroy maintains several city parks and open spaces, as well as an aquatic center and skate park. "Movie Under the Stars" is held in the summertime at Jones Park and is free to the public. Just bring your blankets, chairs and snacks and enjoy an evening at the movies. One of the most impressive nearby attractions is the Casa Grande Ruins National Monument. The ruins contain an four-story building that dates to the late Hohokum period, in the 14th century. It's situated between the Gila and Santa Cruz Rivers and was once part of a collection of settlements scattered along the Gila River and linked by a network of irrigation canals. This area has a very low elevation and is often the hottest place in the U.S., and even in winter, daytime highs reach 80 degrees.

Eloy Weather & Climate

|
|
South-central Arizona, in the Santa Cruz Basin region south of Phoenix, has a desert climate. Extremely hot, sunny summers and mild to warm winters are the norm. A desert climate has low annual rainfall and low relative humidity. Daytime temperatures are high throughout the summer months, often topping the century mark. In winter, nighttime temperatures sometimes drop below freezing during the three coldest months, but the afternoons are usually sunny and warm. There are two rainfall seasons in southern Arizona; the winter months from November through March when the area is subjected to occasional storms from the Pacific Ocean, and the second period is during July and August. Snowfall very rarely occurs in this part of Arizona. Summer thunderstorms seldom occur in the valley before evening. Dust storms are another possibility in the summertime.
