La Paz County was established in 1983 after voters approved separating the northern portion of Yuma County, making it the only county to be established after Arizona became a state in 1912.

As a result Arizona laws were changed to make splitting other existing counties much more difficult. The Colorado River Indian Reservation is located in the western portion of the county. Part of the reservation extends westward into San Bernardino and Riverside Counties in California. ==Geography== According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of , of which is land and (0.3%) is water.
