Once the seat of Graham County, Solomon, Arizona (originally known as Solomonville) is a quiet riverside community steeped in territorial history, pioneer legacy, and the stories of Arizona’s early multicultural settlers. Located just west of Safford along US-70, Solomon was founded in the late 1800s by German-Jewish merchant Isadore Elkan Solomon, whose legacy helped shape the region’s infrastructure and commerce. Today, the town is a peaceful waypoint for scenic drives and historical curiosity — perfect for those who enjoy quiet desert views and forgotten stories of the Old West.
