  • Tuba City (Navajo: Tó Naneesdizí) is an unincorporated town in Coconino County, Arizona, on the Navajo Nation, United States. It is the second-largest community in Coconino County. The population of the census-designated place (CDP) was 8,611 at the 2010 census.[4]
    It is the most populous community within the Navajo Nation, slightly larger than Shiprock, New Mexico, and the site of the headquarters of the Western Navajo Agency. The Hopi village of Moenkopi lies directly to its southeast, and Hopi also live in the city.
    European Americans named the town in honor of chief Tuuvi, a Hopi man from Oraibi who converted to Mormonism (religion of Church of Christ (Latter Day Saints)) and allowed Mormon migrants to settle in the area. The Navajo name for this community, Tó Naneesdizí, translates as "tangled waters". It likely refers to the many below-ground springs that are the source of several reservoirs.
    Tuba City is located within the Painted Desert near the western edge of the Navajo Nation. The town is served by U.S. Route 160, near the junction with Arizona State Route 264. Tuba City is located approximately 50 miles (80 km) from the eastern entrance to Grand Canyon National Park and approximately 78 miles (126 km) from Flagstaff. Most of Tuba City's residents are Navajo, with a small Hopi minority. It is located within Arizona's 1st congressional district, currently represented by Tom O'Halleran.[5]

    The coffee soap next to the tuba city trading post used to host karaoke once a week a few years back. Every once in a while you can catch a local band performing live at various locations throughout Tuba, but that's rare now. Great video!

    I had family who moved there. Used to visit them from Gallup. So we'd come from the east via the Hopi reservation and those cliffs would scare me lol I made a trip thru there in 2022 via the Hopi reservation again and to my shock those cliffs weren't as scary as I remember. Also, pretty sure that road is pronounced Pesh-la-kai. Had a school mate w/that last name. Pueblo name I believe.

      Peshlakai is a Navajo name that means "silver." In Navajo, it's spelled, 'beesh ligaii.'
