Mesa
Arizona's third largest city, from downtown to Eastmark and the Superstitions
Living in Mesa
Arizona's third largest city, from downtown to Eastmark and the Superstitions.
Mesa is Arizona's third largest city, with more than 500,000 residents, and it stretches from the light rail line downtown all the way east to the Superstition Mountains. That size gives buyers a wide range of choices: renovated homes near the Mesa Arts Center, lakefront living in Dobson Ranch, hillside homes in Las Sendas and Red Mountain Ranch, and Eastmark, the East Valley's largest master planned community near Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport.
Angela's Mesa closings include homes in Superstition Village, Westbrook, Meridian Pointe and Sunland Village, along with condos near Greenfield and Southern. Mesa's 55 plus communities such as Leisure World, Sunland Village and The Fountains offer some of the Valley's most attainable active adult homes, and the city's newer east side draws buyers working at Boeing, Apple and the Gateway Airport employment corridor.
