Nationally registered homes in Feldman’s
Because it’s adjacent to UArizona, Claassen says many homes on the eastern side of Feldman’s are largely made up of rental homes for students. But there are single-family homes of various styles as well, and a portion of them are on the National Register of Historic Places. Early 20th-century Spanish-influenced bungalows and Pueblos with stucco exteriors typically range between $160,000 and $275,000 and feature small, gravel backyards and porches with wooden verandas. Larger Craftsman bungalows and Pueblos built between the 1920s and ‘40s feature up to five bedrooms and are priced from $300,000 to $515,000; these properties offer renovated interiors along with more spacious fenced-in lots. Streets here are laid out in a grid and connect to a handful of roundabouts throughout the area, and many residents either park in the street or under carports. Well-paved sidewalks covered in mature acacia trees lead to UArizona’s campus and nearby churches like Tucson Chinese Christian and First Southern Baptist Church.

Local bites and shops along nearby University Boulevard

Neighbors love eating and grocery shopping at the over 100-year-old Time Market--dubbed Tucson’s “original bodega.” Folks can sort through flakey croissants at the in-store bakery, peruse the produce aisle or munch on thin-slice pizza at the Time Market restaurant. A few blocks east, Main Gate Square shopping area houses local businesses like Boutique 816 and Collette, selling women’s clothing and accessories.

Every spring and winter, residents take advantage of Tucson’s milder weather at the 55-year-old Fourth Avenue Street Fair, featuring hundreds of local craft and food vendors all within the Historic Fourth Avenue a mile south. The annual two-day Festival of Books event in March is also popular; folks can attend panels from their favorite nationally recognized authors and donate to local children's literacy programs at the pedestrian-friendly University of Arizona Mall 2 miles east of the area.

Bike-friendly streets and proximity to downtown’s Streetcar
Downtown Tucson is a 2-mile drive south via Speedway Boulevard on the southern border, and Tucson Sun Tran buses make regular stops along Drachman Street and Stone Avenue, which intersect in the middle. Tony Baker, a Tucson Realtor with RE/MAX Professionals, says people like to bike to get around, and folks can trek a mile over Speedway toward University Boulevard to hop on the Sun Link Streetcar, which travels through downtown. The 137-mile Chuck Huckelberry Loop is also a mile away, providing a paved bike path throughout the city. Banner University Medical Center Tucson is a mile drive east, and Tucson International Airport is 10 miles south via Interstate 10 on the western border.
