North Scottsdale is an actively developed area in the city of Scottsdale located in Phoenix's Northeast Valley. All of North Scottsdale is situated in a prime location for spectacular mountain views, and the beauty of the Sonoran Desert makes it a particularly attractive natural setting for suburban living.
North Scottsdale is the portion of the city that contains many of the nation's most expensive homes and exclusive properties. Residences in North Scottsdale often exceed several million dollars. Popular North Scottsdale areas and communities include DC Ranch, Desert Mountain, Silverleaf and Grayhawk, among many others.
Exploring the highlights of just one of these North Scottsdale communities can give you a sense of the astounding amenities and features the area has to offer. DC Ranch is one of North Scottsdale's premier communities. It is situated on 3,700 acres of land beside the 16,000-acre McDowell Sonoran Preserve. This is an incredibly scenic area with many unique features that hearken to the past including petroglyphs and old mines. The McDowell Mountains are also located in close proximity.
North Scottsdale is one of the most actively developed areas of the Northeast Valley as it was historically the least built up. The city's borders expand to the east and west in this area, contained by the McDowell Mountain range to the east and the Phoenix border to the west. North Scottsdale also claims many of the most expensive homes in the country, with many exceeding $5 million in value. When searching for a residence, there are many options from condos to townhomes, to modest family dwellings, to some of the most spectacular mountainside homes you'll find anywhere in the country.
Much of the residential boom in North Scottsdale is driven by the fast growth of Scottsdale Airpark, the second largest employment center in the Phoenix metropolitan. The Scottsdale Airpark, home to more than 55,000 employees, 2,600 businesses and 23 million square feet of office space is expected to continue growing by over 3,000 employees per year. Many companies are headquartered or have regional headquarters in the park, including AXA, GE Capital, DHL, Discount Tire Company, Fidelity Investments, JDA Software and The Vanguard Group.
Scottsdale boasts a number of golf courses and is home to the famous Waste Management Open - the greatest show on grass. Many master-planned communities such as Grayhawk, Legends Trail, Whisper Rock, Terravita and DC Ranch have golf courses as the community's central focus.
