Gilbert

For more than a decade, Gilbert has been one of the fastest growing cities in the U.S., and it's easy to see why. With a thriving economy, healthy real estate market, highly rated schools and a diverse range of cultural and recreational attractions, this Sonoran Desert city truly has it all. Oh, and did I mention the weather? With more-than 300 days of sun each year and an average annual temperature in the mid-70s, Gilbert's climate lends itself well to outdoor recreation, from golfing to hiking. And while it does tend to get hot in the summer, residents can simply head to the nearby Salt River Recreation Area, Saguaro Lake or look for homes for sale in one of Gilbert's many lakefront communities, such as Val Vista, the Islands or Lago Estancia.

And speaking of outdoor recreation, golfers can try their luck on one of the more-than 20 courses in or within a few miles of Gilbert, while hikers and bikers will enjoy the miles of trails that criss-cross the town and nearby nature areas, such as Red Mountain District Park,  Neely Ranch Riparian Reserve and McDowell Mountain Regional Park.

Indoor activities abound, as well; Gilbert offers a range of cultural attractions, such as the upscale shopping at SanTan Village and the galleries and boutiques in Gilbert's historic Heritage District. For a night out on the town, the Hale Center Theatre and the Higley Center for the Performing Arts offer a year-round calendar of events.

With all that Gilbert has to offer, it's no surprise that the employment sector in Gilbert is strong and growing. Its location near the Price Corridor and the Airpark draws technology, bioscience, manufacturing and aerospace companies, thanks to the region's highly educated workforce, as well as access to low-cost power and fiber optic connectivity. 

As a result, Gilbert has benefited from an influx of high technology companies in recent years, many with a focus on growing industries such as biotech, clean technology, renewable energy, life sciences, aerospace and defense. The city's largest tech employers include companies such as Go Daddy Software Inc., and Acuinity Interactive.

Other large private employers in Gilbert include healthcare providers such as Banner Health MD Anderson and the Gilbert Hospital, as well as companies such as Dillards and Mapfre USA Commerce Insurance. Gilbert's top public employers include the Gilbert Unified School District, the Higley Unified School District and the Chandler Unified School District. 

And speaking of schools, Gilbert has some great ones! The town is served by three public school districts: Gilbert Unified, Higley Unified and Chandler Unified. Gilbert schools stand out as leaders in education in the region, receiving "A" grades from the Arizona Department of Education and scores of 10 -- the highest possible -- from GreatSchools. The Gilbert Unified District has been honored for its innovative pre-engineering program known as "Lead the Way."

Gilbert is also served by several private schools and post-secondary institutions, including the Chandler-Gilbert Community College, Arizona State University Polytechnic and Northern Arizona University's Gilbert campus. If you're seeking homes for sale and education is a consideration, rest assured that Gilbert offers top-level educational opportunities for both youth and adults. 

The healthy economy and educational sector both contribute to a strong Gilbert real estate market. Over the past year, both the number of home sales and the median sales price have risen, following a trend that points to rising home values across the region.
