Cottonwood is a city in Yavapai County, Arizona, United States. According to the 2010 census, the population of the city is 11,265. The city is located on the Verde River. As settlers arrived in the area, a stand of cottonwood trees near the Verde River served as a meeting place for travellers. Horses rested there before their journey up the mountains, and travellers would camp here. This location would become the center of Cottonwood. A post office was established in 1885. Main Street in Cottonwood was created 1908, when two settlers "used a mule team to pull and drag through brush". In 1917, Clemenceau, a mining town that is now part of Cottonwood, was established nearby. The Clemenceau smelter closed in 1936, causing job loses and a disruption to the area. Cottonwood incorporated in 1960.
