Suburban community central to dining, parks and schools
Set in Yuma, Arizona, suburban Falls Ranch is known for its 21st-century subdivisions with sidewalk-lined, unshaded streets near parks and schools, as well as urban shopping and dining. Mounted American flags are common sights, as are kids riding their bikes or playing under sprinklers. “It’s a beautiful, well-built community, within 3 miles of all the schools,” says Sam Azar, a local Realtor with Realty Executives Yuma and over 20 years of experience. "And there’s almost no traffic.” Major thoroughfare Route 95 is just northeast, and Yuma Regional Medical Center, one of Yuma’s largest employers, is less than 3 miles away. Since summer temperatures in Yuma regularly reach upward of 90 degrees, local homes with swimming pools and covered patios are highly sought-after; there's also a popular aquatic center within a mile.
It's common to find homes in Falls Ranch with trees around them.

Lots range from 10,000 to 14,000 square feet, which are considered large in Yuma, and front yards feature rock gardens or manicured lawns.

Annual events at the Yuma County Fairgrounds
The annual Yuma County Fair is held in April at the Yuma County Fairgrounds, about 6 miles southeast. The six-day fair has been a county tradition for over 70 years and attracts up to 15,000 festivalgoers daily. Local tradesmen and vendors set up booths at the fair, selling hot food and handmade crafts, like balloon animals and fresh cinnamon rolls; while parents shop, kids can check out the arcade area with games and a bouncy castle. There are also carnival rides and live music from touring artists and tribute bands, but the main event is the demolition derby, where locals with brightly painted modified cars compete for a cash prize. In October, the annual Fall Festival at the fairgrounds is a new tradition that began in 2022; festivities include pumpkin carving and a fall-themed maze.
