How to Search Glendale Residents Directory

Finding someone in Glendale takes a few steps. Start with what you know. A name helps. An address is even better. Use the right database for the record type you need. Here is a simple approach that works for most searches.

First, try property records. If the person owns a home, their name appears in the Assessor database. Search by name at mcassessor.maricopa.gov. This gives you their address if they own property in Glendale. The recorder database shows the deed and mortgage history.

Second, check court records. The statewide court lookup at apps.azcourts.gov covers most Arizona courts. Enter the name and select Maricopa County. Look for cases in Superior Court, Justice Courts, or Glendale City Court. Court records often have addresses listed in the filings.

Third, use business records if the person runs a company. The Arizona Corporation Commission at arizonabusinesscenter.azcc.gov shows principals and statutory agents for all registered businesses. A Glendale business owner will appear in these records with their name and address.

Each search fills in part of the picture. Cross check results to verify you have the right person. Names can be common so look for matching addresses or other details that confirm identity.
