Welcoming neighborhood between between the Catalina Mountains and the Tucson Mountains
Southeast Tucson neighborhoods are known for having a welcoming, relaxed and roomy vibe. Located right between the snowy peaks of the Catalina Mountains to the north, and the Tucson Mountains to the southwest, buyers will find South Harrison, one of the largest of these southeastern suburbs. Home to about 7,000 people, South Harrison has a mix of home sizes, abundant parks and well-regarded public, private and charter schools. Like many of its surrounding neighbors, South Harrison enjoys being just 12 miles from the second-largest city in Arizona while also being surrounded by breathtaking mountain views. As visitors enter South Harrison they will find sparse suburbia. Subdivisions of small to mid-sized homes are laid out with plenty of space between residences. While homeowners walk, jog and bike through the neighborhood, they will drive cars when heading to schools, shopping and dining. The community sits between East Golf Links Road and South Houghton Road to the north and east. Its southwest edge is protected by the Pantano Wash, a naturally dry river bed that protects surrounding communities by dispersing overflows from rare but powerful rainstorms. Tanisha Knutzen, Realtor with AZ Skyline Realty for more than 10 years, and a native of southeast Tucson explains the appeal of South Harrison, “There’s a special feeling of relaxed friendliness in South Harrison. People who grew up around here tend to stay because they know the area well and don’t want to leave. This is also a great neighborhood for military families as it’s close to Davis-Monthan Air Force Base.”

We have had incidences of drugs in our neighborhood causing lots of different vehicles and people in our neighborhood. This makes us feel uneasy and will not let our kids out on the front yard without supervision. Our house got ran into by a drunk driver whom was going to buy drugs from a drug house in our neighborhood.

A lot of rental homes and lack of home care from residents. I would have purchased a home more north if I could afford it. The areas up north offer more space between homes and better quality homes.

We have a variety of local parks within the community, however, the people the parks attract are questionable. Therefore, we do not attend any of the parks in the neighborhood.
