The community of Goodyear was actually founded by the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company as long ago as 1916. The company was interested in this area for the production of cotton used in tire cords. The establishment of a US Naval air station in Goodyear spurred the development of Goodyear Aircraft, a manufacturing plant for Navy seaplane flight decks. The former Goodyear Aircraft is todays Lockheed Martin still one of the communities largest employers. With the strength of its leading- edge aerospace activity and food processing plants and the relatively close proximity to California markets, Goodyear benefits from a vital local economy. The popularity of the Southwest Valley for new-home construction has expanded the residential development in the area. Goodyear civic planners are committed to developing neighborhoods where homes are well built and residents have access to cultural and recreational amenities. Other priorities of counsel are aesthetic appeal and the preservation of open space. The award-winning master- planned communities in this area such as Estrella Mountain Ranch are attracting a large amount of new home buyers. Estrella Mountain Ranch hosts the Cool Desert Jazz Festival each fall while the Phoenix Symphony Pops Concerts entertain large crowds in the springtime. Local residents enjoy a farmers market, the annual Pumpkin Festival, Easter egg hunt and the unique activities at Duncan Family Farms. Many of the Goodyear areas special events are either sponsored by or supported by the active West Valley Fine Arts Council. Outdoor attractions include the Estrella Mountain Regional Park for golfing, camping, horseback riding, hiking and fun picnicking for the whole family. White Tanks Regional Park Phoenix International Raceway (PIR) and a wide variety of exceptional golf courses add to the quality of life for Goodyear residents and draw visitors from across the entire Valley. Close to Interstate 10 the city offers an accessible yet charming location just minutes from the cultural venues and professional sports stadiums of downtown Phoenix.
