Golf in Blythe

Blythe is a city in Riverside County on the Colorado River at the Arizona border, in the eastern desert of the county. The city sits at roughly 260 feet elevation in the Palo Verde Valley, where the Colorado River provides irrigation water for agricultural operations on the valley floor. Riverside County's eastern desert communities, including Blythe, have a character shaped by the river and surrounding arid terrain. The local economy centers on agriculture in the irrigated Palo Verde Valley, along with retail and services for travelers on Interstate 10, which crosses the Colorado River here. The city has a small commercial area and provides services for the surrounding agricultural community and travelers on the main Los Angeles-to-Phoenix highway corridor.
