West Chandler is exactly that, the west side of Chandler Arizona but it’s also an urban neighborhood within the city limits. It’s primarily made up of medium-sized to large single-family homes and mobile homes. Most of the residential real estate is owner-occupied and most properties were built between 1970 and 2000. A small handful has been built since.

The majority of homes were built between 1970 and 1999, however, this doesn’t necessarily mean they have old housing. You’ll find a lot of similar properties, tree-lined streets, and 96% of the residential real estate was built within those 30 years.
