Who we are

Tolleson has been fortunate in its ability to sustain community values, neighborhood character and livability throughout its history, in the midst of frenetic, overwhelming growth in its surrounding environs.
The City of Tolleson, although small in stature, competes with some of the most daunting communities in the valley from economic and community development to workforce recruitment and retention by strict adherence to its most fundamental values captured best by the City's Vision Statement. Our objective is to continue the legacy of our vision statement while recruiting a diverse and talented workforce committed to honoring our past, and positioning our future.
