Homes typically range between $400,000 and $800,000; most are late-20th-century ranch-style or New Traditional constructions that draw from Spanish Revival architecture. At the lower end of the market, three-bed townhouses from the 2000s start around $350,000 and are often a part of HOA communities, like Park Place Village near McQueen Park. Late-century, three-bed ranch-style homes start closer to $500,000, and feature amenities like attached garages, pools and rock gardens with low-water plantings, while renovated versions with extra bedrooms, larger pools and multi-car garages range between $600,000 and $800,000. “Most homes cater to a family lifestyle,” says Klaus.Numerous options for parks and recreation
McQueen Park is popular with locals for its many sports amenities, including basketball, volleyball and tennis courts, youth baseball diamonds and multi-use fields; visitors can also cast their fishing lines at the 2-acre Mcqueen Pond for catfish, trout and sunfish. The McQueen Park Activity Center is also a big draw, where locals attend classes and enjoy indoor amenities like the gymnasium, billiards and foosball. Hit the links at the nearby 18-hole Kokopelli Golf Club, a community staple since 1992 featuring rolling terrain dotted by tall palm trees. For local wildlife, explore the Riparian Preserve at Water Ranch, which hosts nature walks and an after-dark educational experience.Gilbert Public Schools receive high marks from Niche

There are also Gilbert Days in November at Gilbert Regional Park, where locals gather to enjoy food, games, and live music while supporting local businesses. Klaus says spring training games are a big draw for the community; locals can catch the Chicago Cubs about 8 miles north at Sloan Park in Mesa.Getting around Northwest Gilbert
