 There’s a new and improved way to “get it done” with Maricopa County. The County’s redesigned website, Maricopa.gov, delivers an improved mobile experience, streamlined content and navigation, and a more effective search bar, powered by Google. The site served more than seven million unique visitors over the past year and is a go-to source of news and information affecting the nation’s fast-growing county.
Maricopa.gov puts customers first. Our goal is to help people find what they want faster, whether that information lives within an appointed department, an elected office, or the courts.
 Are you tired of getting the run-around? Click on the above video and see how Maricopa County aims to be a different kind of government, clearing obstacles so you can “get it done.”
