I came to Jerome for the first time in 1985 and even then I knew I would return. And return we did, a couple times a year for the new couple of years. That changed when in 1999 I was hired as their Chief of Police. While I had retired from that line of work, I could not refuse when approached by the Town to apply for the position. With that we packed our bags and moved here from Michigan. My wife Jackie and I bought the Ghost City Inn http://www.ghostcityinn.com back in May of 2001. We have never regretted that purchase, and the last couple of years have found us busyier then we could have imagined! I am still the Chief of Police, I recently left the Board of Directors for the Chamber of Commerce to become the President Elect of the Jerome Historical Society. I really do love this town!

If you haven't been to Jerome you must make it a place to stop on your next trip out west. Jerome, Arizona is like no other place in America and will capture you once you arrive. We have incredible art galleries, fine dining, excellent accomodations, breathtaking views, and a history like no other town in America.
