Buckeye Is Booming
The town of Buckeye in the West Valley plans to annex an additional 108 square miles of land, the largest municipal annexation in Arizona's history. At 230 square miles now, Buckeye is already larger than Tucson, Mesa and Seattle.
Buckeye's "planning area" is 600 plus square miles. Buckeye, which had a population of 8,000 residents in 2000, has already grown to about 25,000 residents now. Town officials say that by 2025, Buckeye's population could be 1 million.
Buckeye has more than 30 master-planned communities either under construction or in the works, including Verrado, Tartesso and Festival Ranch. At build-out, Buckeye could be home to 2 million people. More...
Definitely one of the Valleys current and future hot spots for real estate.

According to 2005 census figures, Buckeye is now hovering around 38,000 and counting. I moved to this town last October and have seen tremendous growth since than. The town has great potential, but must work out a few issues such as proper zoning, better schools, more jobs, and greater leadership. Buckeye is on the right track since it elected Bobby Bryant as mayor and a serious reconsideration of it master plan has been constructed. A strong, vibrant, and attractive town will not only be good for those people that have bought into Buckeye, but the future of Phoenix as well.
Thank you for your input!
I agree that the future of Buckeye looks good since Bryant was elected. Further helping Phoenix' image in the eyes of the nation.
