The town is situated in the Sault River Valley region, at an elevation of about 280 meters above sea level, and has a typical Sonoran Desert climate with hot, dry summers and mild winters.
Dating back to the early 20th century, Bowes was originally founded as a watering station for the Arizona and California Railroad. Its name comes from Thomas Bouse, an early settler, and evolved into a local place name. During World War II, Bouse Army Airfield was established nearby and used as a military training base.
According to the most recent data, Bouse has a population of approximately 500, which is dominated by retired residents and seasonal visitors. The economy is supported by tourism and small services, with the surrounding desert landscape and outdoor recreational activities (e.g., off-road vehicles, hiking) attracting visitors.
