The tribe operates the Paradise Casino, a 24-hour destination popular for its concerts and shows. Since those days of trading, the tribe now largely earns its income from agricultural and commercial land leasing. Centuries ago, they battled and traded with the Papago, Apache, and other tribes for the fertile flood plains of the Colorado River. Formerly known as the Yuma American Indians, the Quechan Tribe is well known for their distinct language, which is the native tongue of southeastern California and southwestern Arizona-only a few hundred people are believed to speak it today. Home to the Quechan Indians, the Fort Yuma-Quechan Tribal lands are located along both sides of the Colorado River near the western Arizona city of Yuma.
