DC Ranch: Living in Harmony with Nature

If one Arizona community epitomizes luxury living combined with the harmony of nature, that community is DC Ranch in North Scottsdale. This planned community connects its residents to the beauty of its planned environment and the surrounding Sonoran Desert.

 

Established as a ranch in the early 1900s by E.O. Brown, the land owners formed a partnership with DMB Development, which envisioned a thoughtfully developed community that would exist in harmony with its desert surroundings. Part of the land was eventually sold to the City of Scottsdale, forming the heart of the McDowell Sonoran Preserve. Today, DC Ranch is a 4,400-acre community adjacent to the magnificent McDowell Sonoran Preserve on the east and Pima Road on the west, with the winding Thompson Peak Parkway bisecting the area.
