Lake Havasu City, Arizona
is largely a planned tourist community, home to the famous, historic London Bridge and a recreational lake. The town lies on the east shore of Lake Havasu on the Colorado River, right at the border of California and Arizona. It is the major population center of Southern Mohave County, which is one of the fastest growing counties in the U.S. Lake Havasu City attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. The London Bridge and its adjacent English Village are the focal point of a multi-million dollar resort complex of shops, restaurants and lodging facilities. A million visitors bring $100 million annually to the economy of Lake Havasu City. Sterlite Corporation, the largest U.S. independent manufacturer of plastic houseware products is located here, and employs more than 400 people in their 450,000 square foot facility. In addition, a cluster of boat manufacturers are located around the lake, and leaders in personal watercraft manufacturing have research and development operations within the community.
