Cibecue (Western Apache: Dishchiiʼ Bikoh "Horizontally Red Valley/Canyon") is a census-designated place (CDP) in Navajo County, Arizona, United States, on the Fort Apache Indian Reservation.
[3](Update needed) The Cibecue community has a high unemployment rate, which was exacerbated by the Rodeo–Chediski Fire, Arizona's second-largest wildfire in recorded history.
[4] According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 6.0 square miles (16 km2), all land.
In 2010, Cibecue had the 18th-lowest median household income of all places in the United States with a population over 1,000.
It is run by the Fort Apache Agency, a division of the Bureau of Indian Affairs.
[13] Cibecue is the focus of the seminal ethnography by Keith H. Basso entitled "Portraits of the 'Whiteman': Linguistic play and cultural symbols among the Western Apache" (1979).
