With 57,555 residents year-round, the population of Lake Havasu City swells from November to March when vacationers and “snowbirds” come to play and escape the cold winter at home.

Everyone in Havasu likes to have fun, and you’ll meet your friendly neighbors in the parks, on the golf course, and boating on the lake alongside vacationers from across the country. There are more mom & pop shops and restaurants than big box stores in Havasu, lending to the town’s familiarity and charm.

Telesis, a non-profit, tuition-free, K-12 public charter school is known for its preparatory programs, and college students here study toward their degrees at Mohave community college and Arizona State University at Lake Havasu. Retirees and families alike love the area for its relaxing vibe, family-friendly restaurants, and fun activities in and around the water.
