Payson Regional Economic Development Corporation

Northern Gila County is referred to as Arizona Rim Country. The Mogollon (pronounced mō-GĒĒ-ōn) Rim is a 7,000-foot-high escarpment that stretches several hundred miles from central Arizona southeastward into New Mexico. The town of Payson is nestled in a valley and on rolling hills that rest at the base of the Rim, surrounded by the Tonto National Forest and bordered by the largest stand of ponderosa pine in the world.
