About the Community
Peoria is one of the most desirable suburbs in the greater Phoenix metropolitan area, offering a blend of master-planned neighborhoods, top-rated schools, and easy access to the cultural and professional amenities of downtown Phoenix just 20 miles to the southeast. The region is renowned for its outdoor lifestyle — hiking the White Tank Mountains, boating on Lake Pleasant, and world-class golf are all within minutes — while Arizona's 300-plus days of sunshine and low state income tax make it a perennial draw for physicians relocating from higher-cost, higher-tax states.
