Suburbia in a central location
Set about 22 miles west of Phoenix and right on Interstate 10, Goodyear’s master-planned Centerra is made up of 21st-century suburban subdivisions, all with homeowners associations. The surrounding area been increasingly developed since 2019, with additions like the popular Goodyear Recreation Campus. Homes here are within a couple miles of well-rated schools, and close to Goodyear Ballpark and neighborhood shopping and dining. “This area's really family-oriented, but it's becoming quite a bit congested with all the growth,” says Stephanie Crow, a real estate agent with Century 21 Arizona Foothills, who has over 20 years of experience. “There are so many great things coming with the people, though, so that’s okay.” Some Centerra residents work in the local Amazon and Chewy fulfillment centers, while many others commute to Phoenix. The average home price here is $462,000, compared to $630,000 in central Phoenix, so homes here tend to be popular with first-time home buyers, as well as investors looking to rent out their properties.
