  • City Description

    Kayenta (Navajo: Tó Dinéeshzhee) is a census-designated place (CDP) which is part of the Navajo Nation and is in Navajo County, Arizona, United States. The population was 4,922 at the 2000 census. Kayenta is located immediately south of Monument Valley (some of the buttes of which are visible from Kayenta's streets) and contains a number of hotels and motels which service visitors to the valley. Like other places in the Navajo Nation, it is illegal to serve alcohol in Kayenta. Arizona does not observe Daylight Time, however the Navajo reservation does. Kayenta Township is the only municipal-style government within the Navajo Nation. It is regarded as a political sub-division of the Navajo Nation. It is managed by a five-member elected town board, which hires the township manager. Kayenta is the name for the Chapter, as well as the township. Kayenta Chapter (a political division within the Navajo Nation that is analogous to a county within a state) encompasses land in both Utah and Arizona. Thus, the Navajo Nation's census figures for Kayenta Chapter are significantly different from those of "Kayenta CDP." Kayenta is located at 36°42′51″N 110°15′37″W / 36.71417, -110.26028
