La Paz County, AZ, which borders California on its western border and is also home to the Colorado River Indian Reservation, has the oldest population in the U.S., according to the U.S. Census Bureau in a report released today. A demographic chart of Quartzsite, AZ, which is one of the biggest cities in La Paz, bears out this report.
