Everything in this guide radiates from the Phoenix Rising training complex at Wild Horse Pass in southwest Chandler, tucked against the Gila River Indian Community at I-10 and Loop 202 — not from downtown Phoenix or the West Valley. The natural living gravity for a player here pulls east and north into Ocotillo and south Chandler, with Ahwatukee just across the freeway. Picks below are ranked for a player who finishes training off 48th Street and wants privacy, quality, and a short, predictable drive home.
Nearly 2,000 master-planned acres wrapped around 165+ acres of lakes and a 27-hole championship golf course, with gated waterfront and golf-course estates.
A guard-gated, lake-and-golf community in south Chandler with some of the area's highest-end custom homes and tight controlled access.
An exclusive south Chandler estate community nicknamed the “Beverly Hills of Arizona,” built around large custom homes on oversized, private lots.
A quiet, master-planned slice of Phoenix backed against South Mountain Preserve, with hillside custom homes, mature landscaping, and golf.
The neighborhoods above sit inside a twenty-minute drive of Phoenix Rising Soccer Complex at Wild Horse Pass. But many athletes prioritize lifestyle, privacy, and prestige over commute — these are the areas across Phoenix where athletes most often buy and rent, even though they’re a longer drive from the facility.
An ultra-exclusive incorporated town of one-acre-plus desert estates ringed by Camelback and Mummy Mountains, with guard-gated pockets like Clearwater Hills where homes run $20M–$30M. The discreet, low-density refuge of choice for the Valley's biggest names.
North Scottsdale's most prestigious guard-gated enclave inside the master-planned DC Ranch, with three 24-hour staffed gates, a Tom Weiskopf championship course, and the 50,000-square-foot Silverleaf Club. Estates climb from $3M villas to $30M-plus canyon trophies.
A lush, tree-lined central-Phoenix district of oversized lots and custom homes at the foot of Camelback Mountain, prized for top restaurants, walkability, and big-lot privacy. A favorite of both active and retired pro baseball, football, and soccer players.
A guard-gated, 8,000-acre Sonoran golf community high in the foothills with seven courses (six Jack Nicklaus signature) and sweeping high-desert views. Among the most secluded prestige addresses in the metro.
