About Coyote Corridor

Coyote Corridor is a square mile of Tucson's south-east side bounded by four streets and nothing else: East Escalante Road along the north, South Harrison Road east, East Irvington Road south and South Camino Seco west. What it contains is two build eras separated by a twenty-year gap: a tract platted between 1982 and 1999, then nothing recorded at all for twenty years, then a new community that began platting in 2020 and was still recording lots in 2026. And an unusual share of the square mile is not housing at all — two landfill sites, one closed and monitored by the City of Tucson and one an active mine reclamation, together hold about 167 of the boundary's 620 acres. All four check against Pima County's street-centerline layer to within about six metres of the mapped boundary, which is rare enough to be worth saying — most of the boundaries used on this site have at least one side that turns out to be a wash or an alignment rather than a road. This one has that too, but only at a corner: the north-east corner is notched out along the Pantano Wash, which the county's flood-control layer carries here with natural earthen banks rather than the soil cement it wears further upstream at Dietz, under a 500-foot standard setback. A geodesic integration of the boundary gives 620.4 acres, 0.969 square miles, in a block 1.012 miles wide and 1.002 deep — a section square with roughly twenty acres taken out of one corner by the wash. The whole of it is in the City of Tucson: all 1,413 parcels lying wholly inside read Tucson on the county's jurisdiction field, with no exception, and all twenty-five interior points tested on a five-by-five grid return council Ward 4, so unlike some of the older squares here this polygon is not ward-split. All 1,628 official county address points inside it read ZIP 85730 and city Tucson, unanimously, across sixty-two street names. The name is the one thing about this place with no first-party source, and rather than invent one this page will say what the record holds instead. The City of Tucson registers exactly one neighborhood association over this ground, and it is called Groves Lincoln Park — active, filed under Ward 4, with Tucson Unified recorded as its school district and signed bylaws on file with the City. The recorded plats are named Fairway Groves, Fairway Villas, Wingate, Hillcrest at Wingate and Bella Tierra. Nothing the City, the county or the state files over this square mile uses the words Coyote Corridor; the only places that do are listing portals, which are not a source this site cites for anything. So take the name as the label the boundary arrived under, and the record below as what it actually contains. Seventeen distinct plats lie wholly inside. Sixteen of them carry a recorded lot count and those sum to 1,166 lots; the seventeenth, Bella Tierra 1A and 1B, names lots 1 through 227 in its own title but leaves the count field empty. Fourteen of the seventeen were recorded between 1982 and 1999 and carry 983 lots between them: Fairway Groves in seven filings from 6 August 1982 to 9 December 1999, running lots 1 through 460; Fairway Villas in two filings in 1983, lots 1 through 128; a nine-lot Wingate filing in 1990; and Hillcrest at Wingate in four filings between 1993 and 1995, lots 1 through 386, the largest of them 206 lots in August 1995. Then nothing at all is recorded for twenty years. Platting resumes on 17 February 2020 with Bella Tierra 1A and 1B and has not stopped since — Bella Tierra Phase 2's 105 lots on 23 November 2023, Phase 3's common areas six days later, and Phase 4's 205 lots and two blocks on 26 March 2026, that last one straddling the north boundary rather than sitting wholly inside it. The parcel record shows the same two-era shape from the ground up. The 1,413 parcels wholly inside run to 426.0 acres at a 0.129-acre median, and the dominant zoning district is R-2 at 999 parcels over 155.2 acres, with 335 R-1, 74 R-3, two C-1 parcels carrying 17.0 acres and one 55.8-acre parcel zoned PAD-40. Two parcels are zoned SR and between them hold 112.8 acres — nearly a fifth of the boundary — and the larger of the two, at 111.7 acres, is owned by the City of Tucson. It is the closed Harrison Road sanitary landfill, and the City of Tucson's own Environmental Services project record is the source for all of what follows. The site is recorded at 9245 and 9475 East Irvington Road, took municipal solid waste from 1972 to 1997, and was formally closed in October 1998 under federal and state regulation, beginning a thirty-year post-closure monitoring period from that date. The City's own landfill GIS layer gives the waste footprint as 64.7 acres and its operating dates as 1972 to 1996 — a year off the project record's 1997, a difference this page reports rather than picks between, since both are the City's. All forty vertices of that mapped waste footprint fall inside this boundary. The site is designated a monitored-only site for groundwater protection: the City monitors landfill gas quarterly at perimeter probes in January, April, July and October to watch for methane migration at the property boundary, monitors groundwater quality semiannually at site wells in May and November, and inspects the closed landfill each April and October. A landfill gas flare system installed in 1998 remains operational. A groundwater pump-and-treat system on the site was shut down in December 2015, the City's record saying volatile organic compound concentrations had been below regulatory standards since 2013. The land is in use: the City's filed planned-area-development exhibit for the neighbouring property describes the closed Harrison Road landfill as zoned SR and used as a BMX bicycle race track, which it classes as a commercial recreation use. The 55.8-acre PAD-40 parcel is the second landfill and a different kind. It sits at 4200 South Harrison Road, at the north-west corner of Millmar and Harrison, and the City's filed exhibit for it — a preliminary geotechnical engineering report dated 30 July 2019 — describes it as the Planned Mine Reclamation, Harrison Road Inert Materials Landfill. The site is a former open-pit sand and gravel mine, with most of the previous mining on its southern two thirds, and the reclamation's stated goals are to use it as a landfill for inert materials, to backfill it to approximately the grades of the surrounding ground, and to potentially develop it later with commercial or industrial uses. The same document records that the parcel's SR zoning dates from its annexation into the City in 1987, carrying over the Pima County SR zoning in place at the time, and that the Pantano Wash forms its northern property line. A third landfill, the 7.4-acre closed Harrison County Landfill, is mapped just east of Harrison Road and lies wholly outside this boundary. Together the two inside it hold about 167 of the boundary's 620 acres. The closed record says the same thing in a different vocabulary. The last 173 closings are the whole three-year record here rather than a sample, and they split two ways: 161 detached single-family houses and 12 townhouses, with no condominiums at all. The two tiers reconcile to the dollar against the unfiltered total. At 93.1 percent of the record the detached tier is the most dominant any place page here has published, which means the blended figures below are worth reading as the figures of an actual thing rather than an average of unlike parts. Blended, the 173 closed at a $310,000 median and a $315,148 average, were built to a median year of 1998 across a 1983-to-2025 range, run 722 to 2,712 square feet with a 1,383-square-foot median, and traded at a $219.67 median price per square foot on a median 35 days on market and a sale-to-list ratio of 0.98; 28 of the 173 closed above asking and 89 took a price reduction. The detached houses alone closed at a $312,500 median and a $321,284 average, 1,421 square feet, a 1998 median year built and $217.06 a square foot. The twelve townhouses are the old, small, fast end of the record: a $234,250 median at 910 square feet, built 1983 to 1992 to a 1984 median, $256.82 a square foot, and a median of five days on market against the detached tier's thirty-nine. Sorted by price the record forms a ladder that is unusually orderly. Taking the closings in five price bands, the $200,000-to-$250,000 band has a median year built of 1984 at 959 square feet; $250,000 to $300,000 a 1996 at 1,298; $300,000 to $350,000 a 1999 at 1,465; $350,000 to $400,000 a 2024 at 1,742; and everything above $400,000 a 2023 at 2,013. Price, floor area and age move together the whole way up, and price per square foot moves steadily the other way, from $248.86 in the cheapest band down to $203.67 in the dearest — so what a buyer is paying more for here is mostly more house and newer house, not a dearer square foot. The $200,000 to $450,000 band this page publishes covers 171 of the 173 closings; exactly one came in beneath it, at $190,000, and exactly one cleared it, at $462,948. What sits immediately outside the boundary is the other half of the picture. Lincoln Regional Park, a City of Tucson park the City gives as 419.4 acres at 4325 South Pantano Road, runs the entire length of the west side directly across South Camino Seco — its mapped east edge stands about fourteen metres from this boundary and spans essentially the same north-south extent. Fred Enke Golf Course at 8251 East Irvington Road, which the City's own planned-area-development exhibit for this square mile maps among the area's public recreation facilities, sits about 0.44 miles off the west edge; the county's park polygon puts its address inside Lincoln Regional Park's mapped footprint, while the City's own park page describes the course as a facility the Atterbury Wash Greenway links to the park rather than as part of it. The two oldest plats here are named Fairway Groves and Fairway Villas and the nearest fairways are that course's, but no source consulted says the one was named for the other, so this page records only that they sit together. Fantasy Island Trails Park, a desert trail system the county maps on state land under City administration, begins about thirty-five metres off the south-east corner, and its trailhead carries twenty-three parking spaces. Pima County's Harrison Road Greenway, a hard-surfaced Chuck Huckelberry Loop route, runs the east side about fifteen metres out, and one Loop access point — Irvington Road North — stands inside the boundary itself at the Irvington and Harrison corner, with Irvington Road South and the two Burnett Street access points just beyond. The county maps a further Loop segment along the Pantano Wash as planned rather than built. School assignment is uniform, which on these square-mile boundaries it often is not. Pima County's attendance-area layer returns the same three campuses at every one of the twenty-five interior grid points tested, all of them Tucson Unified: Ford Elementary at 8001 East Stella Road, Secrist Middle School at 3400 South Houghton Road and Santa Rita High School at 3951 South Pantano Road. LiveBy returns exactly the same three as assigned, with no fourth and no ambiguity — the first boundary in this series where the two records agree completely. Grade spans are worth stating carefully, because the county map layer is the odd one out: the federal Common Core of Data directory gives Ford as prekindergarten through sixth grade, Secrist as sixth through eighth and Santa Rita as eighth through twelfth, LiveBy returns the same three spans, and the county layer reads K-5, 6-8 and 9-12 instead. Two records of three agree, and the federal directory is the one to go by. None of the three campuses stands inside the boundary; measured from the nearest edge they are 0.96, 1.05 and 0.93 miles out. Homeowner association status depends on which part of the square mile a house is in, and the county parcel record is what settles it. Two associations own mapped common ground here: the Wingate Community Association holds nine common-area parcels totalling about ten acres across the 1990s tract, and the Bella Tierra Community Association holds three totalling 20.8 acres in the newest one, with a further 13.9 acres of Bella Tierra Phase 3 common area still recorded to the developer's trust rather than conveyed to the association. Fairway Groves and Fairway Villas have no common-area parcel recorded under any association name at all. No dues figure is published here, because the closed record does not aggregate one — ask for the specific subdivision's disclosure rather than assuming the block's. For getting about, Golf Links Road is one mile north and Houghton Road one mile east; Pima Community College's East Campus at 8181 East Irvington Road is 0.62 miles from the west edge; and Pima County's points-of-interest layer maps the Davis-Monthan Air Force Base boundary reaching north-east to within about seventy-five metres of the south-east corner across Irvington Road, with the base's mapped runway 2.7 miles off. Measured from the nearest boundary edge, Park Place Mall is about 4.2 miles out, Interstate 10 about 4.4, Tucson International Airport about 6.7, El Con Mall about 6.9, Tucson City Hall about 10.3 and Tucson Mall about 12.2.
