What it’s like

The place. Chloride is a very small community in Mohave County, Arizona, with few residents and a quiet, close-knit feel. Winters are mild by most of the country's standards, with cool days and nights that dip to around freezing. Summers are hot and dry, and rain and melted snow add up to very little over the year.

Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, in restaurants, hotels and entertainment, in shops, and in professional and business services. Across Mohave County, the largest workplaces include Kingman Regional Medical Center, Kingman Unified School District and Mohave Community College. Unemployment across the county has risen over the past year, and the number of jobs there has slipped slightly. Household incomes across the county are modest.

Things to do. Mount Tipton Wilderness is a protected area a short drive away, a quiet place for getting out onto open desert land. A longer drive brings you to Lake Mohave, a reservoir, and to the Mohave Museum of History and Arts, a museum that tells the story of the region. Bonelli House, another museum, is also a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Chloride’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.

From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Mohave County and the Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ metro.
