Tucson neighborhood close to natural beauty and shopping conveniences
Located 13 miles east of downtown, Eastside is a densely residential area near some of Tucson’s best outdoor spots featuring sought-after housing. “You can get the best bang for your buck---you get the best price for a larger home over there compared to other parts of town,” says Violet Arma, curatorial assistant at the University of Arizona Museum of Art and longtime Tucson resident. She says people here like being closer to the Santa Catalina Mountain range and Saguaro National Park where folks can escape the Arizona heat at the lush, desert plant-covered Rincon Mountain peaks. Even with it being further out from city amenities, locals here don’t have a hard time shopping and dining. “You pretty much have everything you need—Eastside is its own area with its own businesses right there,” Arma says.
Eastside is tucked into the large and scenic Rincon and Catalina Mountain ranges of Tucson.
Saguaro National Park is close to the Eastside area and home to the saguaro cactus.
