Miami, Arizona is a small town with a population of 1,841 and located in Gila County. It once was a booming western copper town but now those copper mines lay dormant. The old downtown has been renovated, and with its low-cost housing, more people are moving there to enjoy that small town feeling.
Just 7 miles or so from Miami is Globe, Arizona. Globe's population as of 2005 was 7,187. The town was founded in 1875 and was a mining camp. Most of the residence that live there are retirees. Globe depends on tourism, mining and other resources for their economy.
Tomorrow, I will be taking a day trip with Sharon (Autumnforest), Debe Branning and Sharon's ghost hunting partner, Ginny. I have been through both towns but never stopped for anything more than gas or something to eat on my way the the White Mountains. Sharon assures me that both towns have haunted places, abandoned buildings, great cemeteries and antique shops. Look for not only my posts, pictures and videos but Sharon's as well on her blog,
Ghost Hunting Theories.
