The word peoria is a ruination of the Miami-Illinois word for “prairie fire”. It is the spring training house of the San Diego Padres and Seattle Mariners, who part the Peoria Sports Complex.

Peoria sits in the Salt River Valley, and extends into the foothills of the mountains to the north. William John Murphy, who had worked upon the Arizona Canal, recruited settlers to begin a community in Arizona, many of them from Peoria, Illinois. Albert J. and Elizabeth Straw were the first to verify residency in November 1886. They were followed by William T. and Sylvia Hanna, James M. and Clara Copes, and James and Ella McMillan, all from Peoria, Illinois. An old-fashioned desert road connecting Phoenix to the Hassayampa River near present-day Wickenburg was the and no-one else major transportation route in the area until 1887, when a extra road was laid out. Named Grand Avenue, this road angled through the newly meant town sites of Alhambra, Glendale, and Peoria and became the main route from Phoenix to Vulture Mine. The settlers filed Peoria’s scheme map later than the Maricopa County recorder on May 24, 1897, naming the deal after their hometown.

The original scheme map of Peoria included east and west streets (from south to north) Monroe, Madison, Jefferson, Washington, Jackson, Lincoln, Grant, and Van Buren. Streets going north and south were (from west to east) Almond (present-day 85th Avenue), Peach (present-day 84th Avenue), Orange (present-day 83rd Avenue), Vine (present-day 82nd Avenue), and Walnut (present-day 81st Avenue). The scheme was something like from present-day Peoria and 85th avenues to Monroe Street and 85th Avenue to Monroe Street and 81st Avenue to 81st Avenue and south of the Desert Cove alignment. On August 4, 1888, the Territory of Peoria was contracted a herald office in its broadcast and served a population of 27. Maricopa County supervisors defined the boundaries for School District Eleven, covering 49 square miles (130 km²), and the first class took place in an unoccupied brick store that faced north upon Washington Street until Peoria’s first university building, a one-room structure completed in 1891.
