Located within Maricopa County, the dynamic community of Gilbert is situated just 24 miles southeast of Phoenix, in the Southeast Valley trade-area, within the larger Phoenix metro. Incorporated in July 1920, Gilbert was primarily a farming community fueled by railroad and construction of the Roosevelt Dam and the Eastern and Consolidated Canals. Encompassing nearly 75 square miles, Gilbert has experienced a rapid transformation from an agriculture-based community to an economically-diverse suburban center. Gilbert began to take its current shape during the 1970s when the Town Council approved a strip annexation that encompassed 53 square miles of county land and in the last three decades, Gilbert has grown at an extremely high-rate, increasing in population from only 5,717 in 1980 to well over 200,000 (as of the 2010 census). Concurrent with the town’s population growth, Gilbert has developed and transitioned rapidly to its present status as a modern suburb of the Phoenix Metropolitan and is currently the most populous incorporated town in the United States.
