Rancho Resort itself has four neighborhoods, two with Hamco-built homes, one with Pulte-built properties and one with new D.R. Horton homes. Residences sit close to one another and to the street and feature Mediterranean, Spanish Colonial or territorial architecture. Dwellings are single level with 750 square feet to 2,000 square feet and one to two bedrooms. Each home has an attached one or two car garage, a walled backyard and landscaping consisting of decorative rocks, bushes and cacti. Highway 19 runs next to the community on the eastern edge, so the western side is a little quieter.

Arizona residents are never far from a hiking, biking, camping, paragliding, white river rafting, fishing, horse back riding, snow skiing adventure.
The cities, too, are packed with things to do. Phoenix has one of the area's best Dia de los Muertos celebrations.
