Buckeye, Arizona
Encompassing the White Tank Mountains in the West Valley of the Phoenix Metro area, sits a sleepy "little" town called Buckeye. According to the http://www.buckeyeaz.gov/ website, Buckeye was:
"Founded in 1888 and incorporated eight decades ago as a 440-acre town, Buckeye has surged into the 21st century with a planning area of almost 600 square miles. While Buckeye's population of about 30,000 residents is expected to increase at a rapid rate over the next few decades, the family-friendly festivals sprinkled throughout the year help maintain the small-town feel that makes Buckeye a nice place to visit - and to live."
This means that the building envelope in Buckeye is larger than the City of Phoenix! The talking heads predict that by the year 2020 Buckeye will be the 4th largest city in the entire country! The Sun Valley parkway - which was 30 miles of nothing, stretching from I-10 west of the White Tank Mountains north and then east to Surprise, Arizona - has master planned communities such as Tartesso, Arizona Traditions, Sun City Festival springing up quickly - with the land both sides of the 30 miles already planned for development!
Already we have Verrado, Sundance and many other subdivisions.
I think Buckeye is waking up - quickly!
