Urban residential living in an active community
West Central Mesa is an urban residential neighborhood in Mesa, Arizona, about 16 miles east of Phoenix. Kenny Klaus, a Realtor with Keller Williams Integrity First who has worked in real estate for over 20 years, says Mesa has a very active community. Residents here are well-known for having a deep appreciation for culture and art and getting involved in the city’s many annual events, like the Mesa Arts Festival in December. West Central Mesa is home to Kleinman Park and Fiesta Sports Park, where locals practice sports on multi-use fields, baseball diamonds and courts for basketball, tennis and volleyball. The neighborhood is also bordered by Highway 60 for easy commuting to Phoenix. “When you think Arizona, you think cactus, desert, but that’s not the case here,” says Klaus. Compared to Arizona’s desert biome, Mesa is an urban city with sidewalk-lined streets and quick access to local shopping and dining at neighborhood retail plazas.

Homes typically range between $250,000 and $400,000.
