A Northwest Valley growth leader, Surprise offers Sterling Grove golf, Marley Park charm, Sun City Grand living, spring-training baseball, and standout value.
Surprise is one of the Northwest Valley's fastest-growing cities, known for newer master-planned neighborhoods, golf, and strong value. As of 2026, the median sale price in Surprise is approximately $460,000, with gated golf communities and custom homes reaching well above that range.
The city spans Sterling Grove, a Toll Brothers community built around a Jack Nicklaus golf course, the traditional-style Marley Park, the age-restricted Sun City Grand, and the growing Asante area. It is one of the anchors of the wider West Valley, roughly 30 to 40 minutes from downtown Phoenix via Loop 303 and Grand Avenue.
