Acacia Trails
Neighborhood in Marana, Arizona
Pima County 85743
Pueblo-inspired homes in an established community
Although houses in the Pueblo style appear here, they are less common. Typically, one and two-story bungalows line the streets of this neatly organized suburb, drawing on Pueblo-style elements. Clay-colored shingles and stucco walls accent the more conservative shape of the homes themselves. Gravel-peppered front yards and the occasional cactus are standard, with driveway parking and attached garages also a reliable feature. Because the homes and the community itself are newer, the streets are wide and in good condition, welcoming guests to street park. Houses in this community range from $217,000 to $660,000, averaging about $400,000. “You get a lot of people who are looking to cash out and retire,” says Lopez. “They like Acacia Trails because it’s one of Marana’s older neighborhoods from the 90s, more established than the surrounding areas.”

Getting active at Continental Ranch Park
The neighborhood's geographical center is Continental Ranch Community Park, open from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Amenities are plentiful, with four little league fields, two basketball courts and two lighted tennis courts. For a more laid-back afternoon, test your throw at the horseshoe pit. Skaters can also hone their skills with the skate park, just as barbecue enthusiasts can fire up one of three grills. Kids aren’t left out either, with a couple of covered obstacle courses and sets of slides. Explore the winding open field for a calm stroll along the park’s edge and a view of the surrounding houses.B-rated schools with extracurricular options
Kids in Acacia Trails attend Twin Peaks Elementary, which earns a B from Niche. The school offers summer enrichment programs for kids struggling to keep up with academics. When they reach B-rated Marana Middle, kids choose from several engaging clubs like beginner’s drama or the builder’s club to get involved. High schoolers at Marana High also benefit from a B-rated institution, where 26% of kids challenge themselves with AP courses.

Walking through ancient grounds
Locals can spend their time out at the Los Morteros Conservation Area, the site of an ancient Native American village. The undisturbed burial remains make it a cultural resource and a significant historical asset to the community. Its open grounds feature signage detailing the trail paths and unique facts about the area. Residents must stay hydrated as they walk because the hot, dry air can be grueling.
Getting around on the SunTran bus
Locals can make use of the SunTran bus line, but it does not extend throughout the length of the community. Owning a car or bike to get around Acacia Trails is far better since the transit system is limited.Cuts of steak and slices of pizza
Quality cuts of steak are within reach at Lil’ Abner’s Steakhouse, which serves delicious ribeyes and porterhouses. However, carnivores aren’t the only ones made happy; Twin Peaks Pizzeria is even closer to home. For a night when cooking just isn’t feasible, grab a Detroit-style pizza to feed friends or family. Their various options make vegetarians feel included. Nightly dinner planning is easy, too, with Safeway just up the road offering the grocery basics. Aeris Family Dental Marana is conveniently located in the neighborhood, so those pesky biannual appointments are much easier to handle. Some residents stay toned at the Orangetheory Fitness just across from Safeway.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
