History
Littlefield was first settled by Latter-day Saints, also known as Mormons, in 1865.

Geography
Littlefield is in the northwestern corner of Mohave County (and the state of Arizona), along Interstate 15, with access from Exit 8. It is bordered to the north, across I-15, by the community of Beaver Dam. I-15 leads southwest 10 mi to Mesquite, Nevada, and 90 mi to Las Vegas, while to the northeast the highway enters the Virgin River Gorge and leads 29 mi to St. George, Utah.

Littlefield, Beaver Dam, and Scenic have the distinction of being the only towns in Arizona along I-15. Owing to its location in the Arizona Strip, northwest of Grand Canyon National Park and west of the Virgin River, it is isolated by hundreds of miles from the rest of the state. Travel to other towns within Arizona requires crossing through either Nevada or Utah, or driving on unpaved roads to the rest of Arizona's road network.

Demographics
The city is made up of 72.7 percent Hispanic, 27.3 percent White, 0 percent Black or Asian.
