PARADISE VALLEY
Nestled in the shadows of Camelback Mountain, the town of Paradise Valley is an elegant island of acre-plus homesites boasting multi-million dollar homes. In 1889, the Rio Verde Canal Company sent three surveyors to help turn this open cattle-grazing land into irrigated farmland. These "Easterners" became so enthralled by the beauty and tranquility of the desert landscape that they named the area "Paradise Valley." In May of 1961, incorporation was granted and the Town of Paradise Valley was established. Since that time, Paradise Valley has become known as a haven for private, relaxed upscale luxury living.
With an average home price of more than $1,000,000, residents of Paradise Valley are some of Phoenix’s most affluent. Having access to some of the best recreational services in the city (including golf courses, restaurants and more), Paradise Valley attracts those looking for a quiet and relaxed vibe while enjoying sprawling desert landscapes.
Although Paradise Valley is primarily a residential community, it is also one of Arizona’s busiest tourist destinations, with eight full-service resorts located within its relatively small boundaries.
