Yuma is in the Sonoran Desert in Southwestern, Arizona. It is the third fastest growing city in the U.S and the third largest Metro area in Arizona. The year round population of Yuma is approximately 95,000. However, this number doubles to 190,000 during the winter months with the increase of winter visitors. Yuma is located near the confluence of the Gila and Colorado Rivers in the southwest corner of the state, on the borders of California and Mexico. The Colorado River, which defines the border between Arizona and California, runs along the city's northern edge. Yuma is nearly equidistant between Phoenix (178 miles) and San Diego (180 miles); also within a radius of just over 300 miles are Tucson, Las Vegas, Palm Springs and Los Angeles.
