For over 30 years, I've called the city of Apache Junction my home and choice of residence. I love that the city hosts the State of the City, live streams City Council meetings and other board/commission meetings, and tries to be transparent in communications. Any interactions with city officials and staff has always been friendly, and overall I feel the city is efficiently ran. Love the city chambers and office buildings as they are well maintained. A great city & the city government is great! read more

Apache Junction City Government - State of the City 2024 - Apache Junction, Arizona

If they gave awards for Moron City Of The Year based on the most dysfunctional places in America, Apache Junction, Arizona, would take first and second prize. Apparently, the architect who designed and built the city's Civic Center was high on opium for the duration of the project. The buildings and parking lots are scattered in a random, hap-hazard layout. There are no directional signs indicating where anything is. Buildings aren't identified by either a name of the agency or a street number. The one exception is the Apache Junction Police Department, whose name appears on one side of the building, but some brain-dead fool stuck a huge tree in front of it, so it's hidden from view and can't be seen. The average IQ score of AJ's city leaders has to be in the minus 10 range. read more
