What it’s like
The place. Pinedale is a very small community in Navajo County, Arizona, where neighbors tend to know one another. Winters are cold, with freezing nights and a fair amount of snow, and summers stay mild rather than hot. Across the county, household incomes sit modest, and unemployment has crept up over the past year.
Work. Residents mostly work in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in restaurants, hotels and entertainment, and in the building trades. Across Navajo County, some of the largest workplaces are Summit Healthcare, Northland Pioneer College and Walmart. Jobs across the county have become somewhat scarcer than a year earlier.
Things to do. The nearest outdoor spots are all a longer drive away. Black Canyon Lake and Show Low Lake are the best known of the lakes, and Sitgreaves National Forest offers a large protected area of woods to explore. Fool Hollow Lake is another lake within the same longer drive.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Pinedale’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively low.

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 Navajo County and the Show Low, AZ metro.
