Willcox

Willcox Playa defines the setting of Willcox — this broad, intermittently flooded lakebed lies in Sulphur Springs Valley, with the Dos Cabezas and Chiricahua Mountains rising beyond the basin. In winter, wetlands and agricultural fields nearby support a noted concentration of sandhill cranes, celebrated by the annual Wings Over Willcox festival. The town began in 1880 as a Southern Pacific Railroad stop and remains associated with Rex Allen, the “Arizona Cowboy,” who was born here. Downtown streets preserve the practical scale of a railroad town serving southeastern Arizona’s ranching country.
