Desert Ridge is without doubt the most ideal central location in the Phoenix Valley. The community has immediate access to the Loop 101 and 51 Freeways, just 30 minutes from Sky Harbor International Airport, and 5 minutes to the expansive Mayo Clinic Phoenix campus. Here you will find parks, greenbelt, walking paths, mountain views, schools, shops, dining and entertaining. The outdoor shopping district at the Marketplace and High Street offer over 100 stores, restaurants and activities. Golf courses are plentiful. And the nearby JW Marriott Conference Center & Golf Club offers one of the best Country Club memberships available Valley-wide.
