There are 300,048 (in 2011) enrolled members of the Navajo Nation. The boundaries cover an area from Arizona to Utah and New Mexico. The State boundaries are not very important within the Navajo Nation as it is all the same tribal land so it has more of a direct relationship to the federal government than to each state. However there are 140,263 in the part in Arizona. These are just enrolled members, there are quite a few more who are half Navajo and half another tribe who might be enrolled in the other tribe so they total population is larger. You need to have one grandparent Navajo to be enrolled in the tribe. Culturally it helps if that is on your maternal side because clans are matrilineal.
