Continental Reserve, a suburb situated between shopping centers
The Continental Reserve’s residential communities replaced cotton farms and open spaces at the start of the 21st century in Marana, a city about 15 miles north of Tucson. “[The neighborhood] is on the west side of the freeway, but it has its infrastructure. There’s every kind of restaurant and bar you could imagine, and then you’ve got hardware and auto parts stores. Hence, it’s its own little community,” says Dan Grammar, a Realtor with Realty Executives Arizona Territory, who has over 20 years of experience. “It’s self-sufficient, so from a buyer’s perspective, you don’t have to go anywhere to get anything or to get anything done that they need.”
Most homes in Continental Reserve were built in the early 2000’s.

Restaurants on Silverbell Road, national grocers and shops
Continental Reserve does not have a dedicated retail hub but does lie between various shopping centers, including one anchored by a Safeway and another with a Fry’s Food Stores. Restaurants line Silverbell Road, such as the family owned La Olla Mexican Cafe, serving Sonoran-style cuisine. “Li’l Abner’s Steakhouse predates the community. It was way out there on a dirt road in the middle of nowhere in the 1980s, and they built the community around it,” Grammar says. “If you go inside, it’s got wood floors and a wooden bar with everybody’s initials carved in it.”
About 3 miles away, Arizona Pavilions Shopping Center has additional restaurants, some national chains and department stores.
