Home prices in Scottsdale vary widely, and follow a pattern of more affordable in the south, to more expensive in the northern most communities. For home buyers moving to the area, it’s eye opening to see just how many different price ranges of homes there are in a town that seems to be known for it’s exclusivity. In reality, there are homes that are quite affordable for first time home buyers.
From these next two charts, you’ll see that the farther north you go, the newer and larger the homes get.
What I think most Scottsdale home buyers will find very interesting is that when you narrow down and look at price per square foot, the differences between the various communities within Scottsdale do vary, but not nearly as much as one would expect when looking at listing prices.

Great post, Dru! I LOVE how easy the charts make it to digest the data – it helps put something we all know intuitively into a format we can see.
If (when) I borrow your format for a west-side post, I’ll be sure to give you credit!

Thanks, Chris. Sometimes charts make the answers so obvious. Glad you like ‘em.
