History Maricopa County, created out of Yavapai County, was officially established on February 14, 1871. The county is named after the Maricopa Indians, who were known to have inhabited the area as early as 1775. The geographical boundaries were last modified in 1881 and have not changed since.
The Arizona Territory was created in 1863, and the initial counties were Yavapai, Pima, Yuma, and Mohave counties.
