Ahwatukee Homes

Ahwatukee is our specialty. I, myself am also living in Ahwatukee for over 2 years now and I know the area well.

If you are looking for a professional Ahwatukee real estate agent, I can help.

History

The Legend goes that in 1921, Dr. and Mrs. W.V.B. Ames built a house on approximately 2,000 acres (8.1 km²) on the southeast side of the South Mountains. They gave the area its original name, Casa de Sueños, which in Spanish means, "House of Our Dreams." Dr. Ames died within just three months of moving into the house, and after Mrs. Ames' death in 1933 the house and most of the land was willed to St. Luke's Hospital, then bought in 1935 by Miss Helen Brinton, who appeared to have retranslated the name of the house to the Crow Indian word which now serves as the name of the village. The house was demolished in 1979, and parts of it were used to build the Our Lady of Guadalupe church.

As it turns out, the Crow translation for "House of Dreams" (ashe ammeewiawe) sounds nothing like Ahwatukee. More likely, the town was named after the Crow words awe chuuke, meaning "land on the other side of the hill," or "land in the next valley."[1]

In 1971 part of the land was purchased, subdivided, and developed into a residential community by the Presley Development Company, owned by Elvis Presley's uncle.

Ahwatukee has grown as the city acquired other parcels leading west, including land owned by International Harvester, which operated a proving ground for earth-moving equipment there from 1947 to 1983. The State of Arizona, has bought, sold, or swapped land several times, including transferring state trust land to developers in controversial auctions [2], [3], in which residents and conservationists had lobbied for the space to be converted to parkland.

Neighborhood characteristics

Ahwatukee has been recognized by Money Magazine as one of America's "Best Places to Live". As of April 2005, the median home price in the community is $315,000, third only to Scottsdale and Paradise Valley among cities in the Phoenix Metro area in terms of housing prices.

The village falls within three zip codes:

* 85044 (population 40,000)- Covers the area north of Chandler Boulevard and roughly east of 32d Street. It has a median income of approximately $60,000.
* 85045 (5,000)- Covers area roughly west of Central Avenue. It has a median income of approximately $100,000.
* 85048 (35,000)- Covers the remaining portion of the village. It has a median income of approximately $85,000.

[edit]

Schools

Ahwatukee's strong education system adds to its reputation as an excellent place to live. The area's K-8 Students are served by the Kyrene School District. The Kyrene Schools in Ahwatukee include Kyrene De La Colina (K-5), Kyrene de las Lomas(K-5) elementary schools, and Centennial (6-8), Akimel A-al (6-8), and Altadena (6-8). High School students go to one of two in the area: Desert Vista and Mountain Pointe. Both schools are operated by the Tempe Union High School District. There are also a number of private/charter schools, including Horizon Charter School, and Skyline Technical High School.
[edit]

Attractions

Ahwatukee enjoys easy access to the South Mountain Park trail system, where mountain biking, horseback riding, and hiking are allowed. The area also has four public golf courses, many neighborhood parks and community centers, a public swimming pool, and a fairly active shopping and nightlife area near the "village core" at 48th Street and Ray Road. The recently built Pecos Park is also a favorite spot for many teenagers. When it is completed, it will boast a mini city center, with a police substation.
[edit]

Miscellaneous

Surrounded to the northwest by South Mountain Park, blocked to the east by I-10 and to the south by the Gila River Indian Community, Ahwatukee Foothills is geographically isolated from the city of which it is part of, Phoenix. Due to its relatively few access points (mainly through a few bridges across Interstate 10), it has been called The World's Largest Cul-de-sac. This will soon change, however, when the South Mountain Freeway is built along the south edge; this freeway would provide a bypass around downtown Phoenix and connect Ahwatukee to the west valley cities of Laveen, Avondale and Glendale.

Ahwatukee is home to many Arizona Cardinals players and coaches due to its proximity to the team's Tempe training facility.

Ahwatukee is also home to toy manufacturer and comic book artist Todd McFarlane, widely known as the creator of Spawn.

Gilbert Homes

Gilbert, Arizona is the fastest-growing city in America gaining over 1,000 new residents that make Gilbert home every month. The tremendous demand for its real estate is evidenced by its doubling in population every five years since 1980. That’s why Gilbert homes continue to appreciate in value at astounding rates creating strong investment potential.

Gilbert shares great weather, excellent golf and year-round attractions with its Greater Phoenix neighbors but insulates its village concept from the hustling metropolis. Business thrives in Gilbert but its smaller town atmosphere of equestrian trails, parks, boating fishing and defining lifestyle is ideal for families.

Mesa Arizona Homes
Mesa is a city in Maricopa County, Arizona and part of the Phoenix-Mesa-Scottsdale Metropolitan Area. It is the third-largest city in Arizona, after Phoenix and Tucson.

Mesa is one of the United States' fastest-growing cities, and currently ranks as the 41st-largest. In 2005 the mid-decade Census survey estimated the city's population to be 448,096. Though a suburban city, Mesa actually has a larger population than better-known cities such as St. Louis, Missouri, Miami, Florida and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Despite its large population, Mesa has a decidedly bedroom-community, sprawl-like character. Its downtown is minimal, and there are very few buildings in Mesa with more than two stories. Nevertheless, the recently completed Mesa Arts Center may help invigorate downtown Mesa. The city is also home to many gated retirement communities, which may explain the large percentage of senior citizens in the population.

Mesa was founded in January 1878 by Mormon (LDS) pioneers and its population is still roughly one-tenth Mormon. The LDS Church operates one of its oldest temples in Mesa (the Mesa Arizona Temple), and the city is a hub of sorts for Latter-day Saints residing in the Phoenix Metro area.

Mesa's residents exhibit jarring economic diversity, with low-income areas and mobile-home parks somewhat close to high-scale neighborhoods with extravagant custom homes.

Geography

Mesa's elevation is approximately 1,241 feet (378 m) and is located at 33°24′40″N, 111°44′47″W (33.411199, -111.746438)GR1. The city spreads over a mesa or plateau that stands about one hundred feet higher than Phoenix. Thus, the name given to it by its Mormon settlers.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 324.2 km² (125.2 mi²). 323.7 km² (125.0 mi²) of it is land and 0.6 km² (0.2 mi²) of it (0.16%) is water.

As of the censusGR2 2004 estimate, there were 447,845 people, 146,643 households, and 99,863 families residing in the city. The population density was 1,224.4/km² (3,171.3/mi²). There were 175,701 housing units at an average density of 542.8/km² (1,405.7/mi²).

The racial makeup of the city was 79.30% White, 3.30% Black or African American, 1.80% Native American, 2.00% Asian, 0.30% Pacific Islander, 12.00% from other races, and 1.30% from two or more races. 20.00% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race.

There were 146,643 households out of which 33.4% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 52.7% were married couples living together, 10.6% had a female householder with no husband present, and 31.9% were non-families. 24.2% of all households were made up of individuals and 9.1% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.68 and the average family size was 3.20.

In the city the population was spread out with 27.3% under the age of 18, 11.2% from 18 to 24, 29.7% from 25 to 44, 18.4% from 45 to 64, and 13.3% who were 65 years of age or older. The median age was 32 years. For every 100 females there were 98.2 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 95.6 males.

The median income for a household in the city was $42,817, and the median income for a family was $49,232. Males had a median income of $35,960 versus $27,005 for females. The per capita income for the city was $19,601. About 6.2% of families and 8.9% of the population were below the poverty line, including 10.7% of those under age 18 and 7.1% of those age 65 or over.

Surprise Arizona Homes

A Rich Heritage - A Prosperous Future
Surprise was little more than a gas station and few small houses in 1938 when founder, Homer C. Ludden, a Glendale letter carrier, and former state legislator turned real estate developer, subdivided the rural square-mile parcel into low-cost home sites for the area’s agricultural workers, naming it after his Nebraska hometown.

Today, it’s one of Arizona’s - and America’s - fastest growing cities. Flanked by one of Arizona’s largest mountain preserves, and situated in the stunning Saguaro-dotted Sonoran desert just a half-hour from downtown Phoenix, it is blossoming into a meticulously planned city.

Chandler Homes

Chandler’s history began when its founder, Dr. Alexander John Chandler, arrived in Prescott, the capital of the Arizona Territory, in 1887 as the first appointed veterinary surgeon to the region. Unfortunately, the entire southwest was experiencing a severe drought. Dr. Chandler found that he was unable to help the area’s cattle herds and resigned his post and made plans to move on to California. However, as he arrived in the small frontier town of Phoenix, a deluge of rain began to fall that halted all travel. Dr. Chandler watched from his hotel room as the desert blossomed into a fantastic array of renewed life. The doctor, moved by what he saw and the possibilities it foretold, reconsidered his resignation and canceled his departure.

Ongoing Development
Seeing the great changes that the rain brought to the parched soil, Dr. Chandler began to learn about irrigation methods. Returning with the financial backing of two Detroit friends, Dr. Chandler formed the Consolidated Canal Company. When the Granite Reef Dam to the southeast of Phoenix was completed in 1908, water from the Salt River was available for all canals to the south. Thousands of acres were put under cultivation, but there was still not enough water to keep the land from remaining dry. In 1911, the Roosevelt Dam was completed, but each landowner was restricted to irrigating only 160 acres.

Dr. Chandler was forced to subdivide his nearly 18,000 acre ranch and he began to advertise and marker his land to draw settlers to the area. He wisely hired a city planner and an architect to design a planned community with spacious lots, wide boulevards and a town green unique to the Southwest.
After the War
During World War II, Chandler's population doubled and reached 3,800 by 1950 -- the year Dr. Chandler passed away. On May 24, 1954, the status of Chandler was upgraded from town to City.
In recent years, Chandler's borders have been expanded and the population has boomed -- from 30,000 in 1980 to more than 200,000 today. The economic base of Chandler has been diversified. While agriculture is still somewhat of a vital element, Chandler now enjoys a strong manufacturing and electronics sector.
Our Community Today
Chandler, the high tech oasis of the “Silicon Desert,” located in the southeastern part of the Phoenix metro area, is one of the fastest growing urban centers in the nation. From its roots as an agrarian township, Chandler has flourished into a premier community known for its excellent residential and employment opportunities.
Trends for the Future
Population growth and economic change are occurring at a rapid rate. With the onset of economic recovery, the next few years will give rise to land-use decisions of fundamental importance. The right decisions will help our community succeed in establishing the economic and social vitality that have made the quality of life and the environment a successful place to live and work.

Demographics
Businesses find a favorable base of suppliers and support services, a location that provides a solid transportation and distribution base on a local and national basis. Successful companies are finding our community one of the places that can accommodate their expansion or relocation plans and provide the quality of life their family desires.
