History
The traditional name of the village is Ak Chin, but to avoid confusion with the village of the same name on the Ak-Chin (Maricopa) Reservation, Ak-Chin, it was officially designated Ali Ak Chin in 1941. Ali Ak Chin means "little mouth of wash" in the O'odham language.[3]
Ali Ak Chin's population was 40 in the 1960 U.S. census.[4]
