Youngtown Arizona Tourism

Youngtown is the nation's oldest retirement community.

Some homesteaders from Wisconsin in 1912 wanted to name Youngtown "Marinette" after their hometown, but in 1955 a real estate developer began constructing a retirement community under the euphemistic name Youngtown.

The first post office was established March 4, 1912 under the name Marinette and then changed its name to Youngtown on January 1, 1958.
