Is 85014 expensive right now
Measured against 22 years of history, 85014 is priced right where it usually sits relative to the rest of the Valley. No premium, no discount. If you buy here, you pay what the neighborhood is actually worth.
This is a finished neighborhood. Builders moved on decades ago, so the 8,978 homes here are the whole story. Most were built around 1964. The large majority predate 1980, so walk in expecting older roofs, plumbing and electrical panels, and budget the inspection accordingly. 25% of the homes are landlord-owned, high for the Valley, so expect more renters than owners on some streets.
When 85014 was built
The age profile of the 7,457 homes here with a recorded build year. The copper
bar is the decade that defines this neighborhood. Age tells you what to inspect: a 1970s ZIP
means original plumbing and panels are still out there, while a 2020s ZIP is mostly
under builder warranty.
