Why, indeed?
I was tempted to leave it at that, but surely this deserves more of an explanation.
The name of the town, er.. place, er... hamlet? is actually WHY, and once I saw it, that was my question too, although I was very attracted to the desert - neat place and all that. Few people live here, and you can see why (perhaps that should be "why not"). Lots of cactus plants, though.
The explanation is that if you look at a map of AZ, you will notice that two roads join here in the shape of a "Y", although it's upside down as you look at the state. Apparently, over the years, this junction came to be known as WHY. Probably more fun than if they had spelled it WYE!
