Overview

Taylor is a town in Navajo County, Arizona, United States. It was founded by settlers of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in January 1878, several months before the neighboring community of Snowflake. Taylor straddles Silver Creek, flowing from the nearby White Mountains to the Little Colorado River on Arizona's Colorado Plateau. As of the 2020 census, Taylor had a population of 3,995. The town was named for John Taylor, the third president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. There is no postal home delivery in Taylor; residents within a certain radius of the Post Office who produce proof of Taylor residency are allocated a small PO box free of charge.
