Like all of the east valley, Mesa is an old farm community that has since turned into one of the largest cities in Arizona. It is situated just east of Tempe, South of the Salt River Indian Community and north of Gilbert and Chandler. Mesa has been the suburban center of Arizona for many years and was the first city to truly take that role with pride. The older parts of Mesa have great homes that were built in the 1950's-60's and 70's, that have many citrus trees and irrigated yards. Since then, the farm land has been sold to developers who have built medium priced homes for the community. Mesa is still growing today. Many new homes are being built in the North/North Eastern part of Mesa towards Red Mountain. The central and southern side of Mesa are the areas that have already been developed and hold some of the great older communities that Mesa has to offer.
