Waddell, Arizona
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Waddell, Arizona is an unincorporated community in the far northwestern part of the Phoenix, Arizona metro area. Much of the area described as Waddell is actually a part of Surprise due to the recent growth and expansion of the city. Some unincorporated areas west of Surprise may still identify as being part of Waddell.
The name Waddell has been used to refer to a general area as opposed to a specific town or settlement, and lacking any boundaries or definition it cannot be said to have any specific population.
With the expansion of Surprise, use of the name Waddell to describe the location is rapidly falling in to disuse. Influence of the name can still be seen in the name of Waddell Avenue, an arterial street running through Surprise, as well as the New Waddell Dam at Lake Pleasant.
