A balance of city and nature in Northeast Mesa

Northeast Mesa is located along the city's edge near Usery Mountain Regional Park. Surrounded by desert terrain and mountain views, the community attracts residents who value open space and opportunities to spend time outside. While Northeast Mesa feels removed from some of the valley's traffic and busier commercial areas, everyday amenities are nearby, and freeways provide straightforward access to downtown Mesa and Phoenix.

Northeast Mesa’s housing options

There are a variety of home styles and sizes in the community, including ranch-style houses from the 1970s and custom Mediterranean-inspired builds from the early 2000s. Most homes sell for between the upper $200,000s and upper $900,000s, though large houses on acre lots can reach nearly $1.7 million.

Manufactured homes are also available. Those on leased lots generally range from about $20,000 to $100,000, plus monthly lot fees of around $800. Manufactured homes that come with land often sell from the low $100,000s to the upper $500,000s.

Enjoying the outdoors at Usery Mountain Regional Park

The area often “appeals to people who want to be outdoors and take advantage of the nice weather we have nine or 10 months out of the year,” says Bryce Henderson, managing broker of Four Peaks Brokerage Company and lifetime Mesa resident. At the northern end of the community is the Usery Mountain Regional Park, a popular destination for everything from mountain biking and horseback riding to archery and camping. The park's nature center offers guided programs, including night walks where hikers use blacklights to spot scorpions.

You're also just a few miles from Red Mountain Park, which has sports complexes, picnic areas and lakeside paths. On weekends, some residents drive up into the mountains to fish in the Salt River or spend the day boating at the Saguaro Del Norte Recreation Site.

Local schools include Sousa Elementary

Families are served by the Mesa Public Schools district. Some kids go to Sousa Elementary School, which gets a B rating from Niche and is located in the community. Skyline High School also gets a B rating and offers dual-enrollment courses through Mesa Community College.
