Arcadia

Known for its lush and mature landscapes and lawns, the Arcadia neighborhood of Phoenix is famous for its historic homesites and upscale yet rural atmosphere.

Large, historic homesites boast mature citrus trees and lush landscapes
As the city of Phoenix grew outward, the Arcadia community became established. Today, many of the large lots on which these homes sit still feature mature landscaping that includes towering grapefruit, orange and lemon trees. For homebuyers seeking an established neighborhood with luxuriant landscaping and generous parcels of land, lush and lovely Arcadia is a highly desirable hot-spot.

Affluent residents who are drawn to the lavish foliage in the area
Residents of Arcadia love the area for its rich history and stunning homes. However, one of the top reasons residents choose to live in Arcadia is the lavish foliage that is difficult — if not impossible — to find anywhere else in the Phoenix area. The average resident of Arcadia is around 42 years old, slightly higher than the state’s average. Average annual income per household sits just north of $110,000 per year.

A slice of rural life in the midst of city living
Large properties and an abundance of luxury resorts in the area should help give a hint of what life is like in Arcadia. Highly desirable custom homes from the early- and mid-20th century and large citrus groves characterize the atmosphere of Arcadia today. Families flock to the area for its good schools and abundance of activities for kids.

Access to world-class amenities just minutes from the heart of Arcadia
Arcadia is located with direct access to all of the amenities of Phoenix and Scottsdale, including Biltmore Fashion Park, Scottsdale Fashion Square, Old Town Scottsdale and more. For travelers, Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport is just a 15-minute drive from the heart of Arcadia. Arcadia also has wonderful biking paths along the Arizona Canal, bordering Arcadia to the south.

Tucked-away from the city’s bustling and busy atmosphere
Although Arcadia is located in part of a large metropolitan city, the community is tucked away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Phoenix. Luckily for you, Arcadia is just a short drive away from the cityscapes of Phoenix if you consider yourself a true city-lover.

Sprawling properties with vintage charm and copious amounts of history
The neighborhood of Arcadia is best known for its mature landscapes and large lots. Home to many sprawling, low-slung ranch houses on the site of former dense citrus groves, Arcadia’s properties are highly desirable for their rural character. While some homeowners have elected to raze and rebuild, plenty of stately older homes still stand today. Tucked in amongst the ranches near 56th Street and Camelback, you’ll even find a 1951 product of Frank Lloyd Wright, who designed the spiral-shaped home for his son, David.

Verdant scenery surrounding you day and night
Arcadia’s verdant scenery is the No. 1 reason people choose to call the area home — and also the top thought Phoenix residents have when thinking about the area.
