About the Community of Bagdad:

The town of Bagdad is located in the high desert of central Arizona approximately 100 miles northwest of Phoenix / 60 miles west of Prescott.

The town has had a direct relationship to local mining operations which have been ongoing since 1882 when the first claims were staked.  The Townsite (http://bagdadaztown.com) and the Bagdad copper/molybdenum mine are owned by Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold.

The town is home to approximately 2,500 people, including mine employees and their families, school district personnel, and other local businesses. All housing is owned by the mine, so school employees will have a designated home, ranging from $200-$400/month.
