Suburban community near Downtown Chandler
Set 20 miles southeast of Phoenix, Arrowhead Meadows is a residential community in Chandler, Arizona, known for its proximity to commercial centers, neighborhood parks and the highly rated Chandler Unified School District. “Chandler is one of the hottest cities in Phoenix,” says Michael Innes, a Realtor with Hague Partners who has purchased and renovated homes in the area. “But this neighborhood's single-family homes are on the lower end of the city's price spectrum because they’re older.” Downtown Chandler is about a mile south, and Valley Metro bus stops along Ray Road make it easy for residents to commute around Chandler and the Phoenix Metropolitan Area.
Arrowhead Meadows offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere for families and newcomers.

Single-family ranch-style homes in Chandler
The average home price in Arrowhead Meadows is $430,000, less than neighboring Central Ridge and Downtown Chandler where the averages are $520,000 and $465,000, respectively. “If you’re looking for a house that’s less than $500,000, I would recommend Chandler,” says Innes. In suburban subdivisions like Colonia Granada and Thunderbird Park, residents enjoy sidewalk-lined streets planted with the occasional tree. Most homes here are ranch-style models from the mid-to-late 20th century, typically not part of homeowners' associations and ranging from $400,000 to $500,000. Set on lots of up to 2,000 square feet, many of these ranch-style homes have attached garages, and front yards have either well-manicured grass or rock gardens with low-water plantings. Homes with larger lots, swimming pools and/or saunas can go for up to $600,000.

Arrowhead Meadows Park and other local draws
Just west of the neighborhood, the 30-acre Arrowhead Meadows Park offers grassy fields, baseball diamonds, a 50-meter pool and the 1-mile, paved Arrowhead Meadows Park Loop trail. However, Innes says that Tumbleweed Park, set about 5 miles southeast, is Chandler's major park; the recreation center here includes a ceramics studio, shaded courtyard and indoor track, and local celebrations like the annual Ostrich Festival are held in the park. San Marcos Golf Resort has one of Arizona’s earliest Bermuda-grass golf courses, an 18-hole layout that dates to 1913.
Fourteen miles west of Arrowhead Meadows, South Mountain Park and Preserve is the largest municipal park in the United States. This vast urban park offers striking views of the South Mountains and over 100 miles of trails for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding; residents can hike to Dobbins Lookout to peer over Downtown Phoenix from thousands of feet above.

Getting around the Phoenix Metropolitan Area
Bordered by Route 87 to the east and less than 4 miles from Route 101, Arrowhead Meadows makes commuting into Phoenix and surrounding communities simple. “Anyone that comes here from out of state, I think this area is on their radar because of the proximity to the highways and job centers. It’s a good location for anyone that’s moving to the area for the first time,” says Innes. Phoenix is about 20 miles northwest, a 25- to 55-minute drive, depending on traffic; locals can also use Valley Metro buses on Ray Road to get around the Phoenix Metropolitan Area. Chandler Regional Medical Center is about 3 miles southwest, and Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport is 17 miles northwest.
