Diverse homes and price points in Colonia Del Valle
Homes in the neighborhood feature ranch-style architecture, primarily with brick exteriors or stucco finishes. While some homeowner associations have monthly costs, they are less frequent in Colonia Del Valle. Yale Estates, Douglas Terrace and Wilshire Heights are a few subdivisions within the community, none of which require an HOA fee. Houses closest to the mall sit on stone-filled lots, each tied together by a narrow sidewalk. On the other hand, homes farther south provide a more secluded feel deeply rooted in the desert landscape. Prices in the community vary, but three-bedroom homes cost between $250,000 and $380,000, while larger homes reach up to $800,000.

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.
