A typical American town, Gilbert lies to southeast of the state capital. Recognized as a town in 1920, Gilbert's foundation can be credited to William Gilbert, after whom the town gets its name, who was instrumental in the construction of a railway line, completed in 1902, between Florence, AZ and Phoenix, AZ, which allowed for the Mormons to find this place and settle here. Over the years, the town has earned several awards and epithets, including being called 'one of the best places to live and learn', 'safest municipality in Arizona', and is placed at the 36th spot in the 'Best Places to Live 2010' survey done by CNN. Do pay a visit to this town and discover for yourself why it has gained such admiration. See the website to know more.
