I really do love the community around here,” says Jurithzy Berrelleza, a leasing consultant at the neighborhood’s San Mateo Apartments.

Ranch-style homes with desert landscaping in Enchanted Hills
Enchanted Hills’ ranch-style homes, built in the late 20th century, are set along sidewalk-lined streets peppered with mailboxes and palm trees; many have red brick or sun-bleached stucco exteriors. These two- to four-bedroom homes generally have layouts of 800 to 1,500 square feet on 2,000 to 5,000-square-foot desert-landscaped lots, some dotted by Saguaro and prickly pear cacti. Stone, brick or chain-link fencing around property lines is typical, and many homes feature attached carports and patios or porches. Prices for these homes typically range from $150,000 to $300,000, depending on a home’s size and features. The neighborhood is evenly split between renters and owners; lower-priced homes are opportunities for investors looking to rent.

Walk to John F. Kennedy Park
Just west of the neighborhood, Enchanted Hills Trail Park is a dirt-packed trail system for hikers, bikers and horseback riders that leads through the Tucson Mountains’ foothills. “If you’re looking for hiking, there’s hiking all around there,” Thiel says. The 160-acre John F. Kennedy Park is walkable from many of the neighborhood’s homes, convenient for a weekend visit to the playground or a pick-up game of soccer, tennis or sand volleyball. “There’s a lot of dog walking over there, cycling too—really nice views to enjoy outside with a picnic,” Berrelleza says. The park’s also popular for its fishing lake, where locals may cast their lines for catfish and sunfish, and its community pool, an oasis in the summer when temperatures here top 100 degrees. Two miles away, Santa Cruz River Park offers access to The Loop, a 130-mile shared-use path that connects several of Tucson’s parks and is especially popular with cyclists.

Annual celebrations at Kennedy Park
“Kennedy Park’s got a lot of activities going on all the time there—holiday celebrations, musicians and festivals,” Thiel says. In April, residents may attend the annual Pueblos Del Maíz Festival, which celebrates corn's cultural significance with music, crafts and everything from corn tortilla tacos to popcorn. October’s Blues Heritage Festival is another highlight for all-day live music with food and drink from local vendors.
