New River is named after the seasonal wash of the same name, part of the Agua Fria river system which drains into the Salt River. It was founded in xxxx by somebody, but retained a largely rural character until its neighbor to the south, Phoenix, experienced a growing spree of phenomenal proportions. In 199x, the Del Webb Corporation proposed a residential development roughly as large as Flagstaff, Arizona's fifth-largest city; this instigated a short-lived self-incorporation campaign which failed due to lack of popular support. Phoenix later annexed the region, and Del Webb went ahead as planned; the development, now called Anthem, is currently half complete.
