South Tucson

"This mile square community has a government independent of that of its surrounding neighbor, Tucson. It derives its name because of its location relative to a time when Tucson did not enclose it."

Barnes, Will C.; Granger, Byrd (ed.) Arizona's names : X marks the place Falconer Pub. Co. : distributed by Treasure Chest Publications, c1983. P. 577
