}}Sasabe ({{lang-ood|Ṣaṣawk}}) is a small hamlet in the Altar Valley of southern Pima County, Arizona, United States, immediately north of the international border with Mexico. It hosts a minor border crossing, an adobe sales outlet, a public school, a guest ranch, a general store with fuel pumps, a weekend bar, and a post office serving the ZIP Code of 85633. In 2010, the population of the 85633 ZCTA, including Sasabe, was 54.[2]

History

The name Sasabe is derived from the Native American language of the Tohono O'odham (formerly Papago) meaning "head valley".[3]

The post office was established at Sasabe in 1905.[4]

Sasabe is best known for its historic Rancho de la Osa guest ranch, formerly the headquarters of a three million acre (12,000 km²) Spanish land grant. Some ranch buildings reportedly date to the late 17th century. The guest ranch opened in 1921. Guests have included Presidents Franklin Roosevelt and Lyndon Johnson.[5]

On average, 165 cars, trucks, or pedestrians per day passed through the Sasabe Port of Entry in 2011.[6] Sasabe, Arizona is much smaller than its sister community, El Sásabe, Sonora, which is known for its burnt-adobe brickyards.

In the 2018-2019 school year, the local school served 28 children in grades K-18.

Geography

Sasabe is seated on an arid, gently rolling sand-plain relieved only by scatter shrub trees and grass hummocks. Much of the area north and east of Sasabe is within the Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge. In 2006, {{convert|3500|acre|km2}} of the refuge that border Mexico east of Sasabe were closed to public entry due to problems with smugglers and unauthorized border crossings.[7]
