Oro Valley, Administrative division in Pima County, Arizona, US
Located at the base of Pusch Ridge in the western Santa Catalina Mountains foothills, Oro Valley extends across residential neighborhoods and commercial zones.
The territory, inhabited by the Hohokam people around 450 AD, transformed into a cattle ranching area when German immigrant George Pusch established Steampump Ranch.
The Oro Valley Festival of the Arts and El Tour de Tucson bike race bring together residents and visitors throughout the calendar year.
The town operates under a council-manager government system, providing municipal services through various departments and maintaining public infrastructure.
Ten high-technology firms operate in this suburban town, earning it recognition as the technology center of Southern Arizona.
