Eagar
Eagar sits in what we call "Round Valley" – to get out of town in any direction, you have to go up. Eagar is a bedroom community and is the home of the Round Valley Ensphere, the first domed high school football stadium in the world. This beautiful town on the edge of the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest is a great place to live and work.

Eagar History & Culture
