Gilbert is the fifth-largest municipality in the metropolitan area of Phoenix and the sixth-largest in Arizona. A town in Maricopa County, it was established by William "Bobby" Gilbert. The area saw its first store in 1910. The building would go on to become Gilbert's first post office in 1912. That same year, many Mormons who fled the Mormon colonies in Mexico because of the forces of Pancho Villa moved into Gilbert.
When the town was incorporated in July 1920, it was a farming community featuring the Arizona Eastern Railway rail line – William Gilbert had given land to the railway in 1902 to build a rail line from Phoenix to Florence, AZ – the Roosevelt Dam, and the Eastern and Consolidated Canals. From 1911 to the late 1920s, Gilbert was known as the "Hay Capital of the World." The once agricultural town was ranked the seventh-best place to raise a family in the U.S. in 2019. As of the 2020 census, it has a population of 243,254 people. Gilbert is the largest incorporated town in the U.S.
Many of the properties and structures in Gilbert are historically significant to the town. Those who have been listed as historical by the Gilbert Heritage District are:
The Gilbert Elementary School is another historical establishment of the town. It has been added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and is now the home of the Gilbert Historical Museum.
