Jerome, Arizona is an ex-mining town in Arizona, USA. In many ways it is a ghost town in common with other abandonded mining towns in the US. However, Jerome is seeing a second lease of life as an artist community and tourist attraction. Jerome's past prosperity was based on mining copper rather than gold.


  • Note -- In the middle part of the image, in the distance, covered by snow, one can see the San Francisco Peaks, the volcano mountain that is located in the proximity of City of Flagstaff, Arizona. It is the highest peak in the state.
