About Mitman

Mitman is about a quarter of a square mile of east-central Tucson between Craycroft Road and Sahuara Avenue, from Fifth Street north to Speedway Boulevard, and nearly all of it is one subdivision: the Mitman Addition, a 666-lot plat recorded in November 1923. The houses came a generation later. Every one of the 45 closings recorded inside this boundary over the three years to October 2026 was a detached house, built between 1948 and 1980 to a median year of 1955, so the earliest house in the closed record went up twenty-five years after the plat was filed. They closed between $161,000 and $450,000, around a median of $305,000 and an average of $310,107, and 22 of the 45 closed inside one $50,000 band, between $275,000 and $325,000. Sorted into seven price bands, the median year built barely moves, 1953 to 1957 in every band, while the median floor area runs from about 1,210 square feet under $250,000 to about 1,850 at $375,000 or more, not in a straight line but in one direction, so here price tracks floor area more than build year. Split by bedrooms, the five houses with two bedrooms or fewer closed at a median of $282,000 for about 1,170 square feet, $244.59 per square foot, and the 40 with three or more at a median of $312,000 for 1,533 square feet, $206.57 per square foot. The smaller houses are the cheaper ones to buy and the dearer ones per square foot, so a valuation here works from sales of the same size and bedroom count rather than from a neighborhood price per square foot. Five sales is a thin group, so read that split as a direction rather than a rate; these are medians over groups, not paired sales. The five closings under $250,000 sold at a median $159.90 per square foot and at 0.87 of their list price, against 0.96 for the whole record; the record does not say why. The rest of the record: living area 1,005 to 2,816 square feet to a median of 1,430, a median $215.37 per square foot, list prices $195,000 to $515,000 to a $315,000 median, and a 0.96 sale-to-list ratio. Eleven of the 45 closed above their asking price and 19 took at least one price reduction. Days on market rest on 43 of the 45 records, to a median of 15, and cumulative days on 44, also to a median of 15; listing to contract and listing to close rest on all 45, to medians of 38 and 42 days. The range printed at the top of this page holds 40 of the 45 closings; five closed below $250,000. No closing over the same three years was recorded as residential income property. These are closed sales, not homes currently for sale. The land record matches. Pima County counts 544 parcels wholly inside the line, every one carrying the county's TUCSON jurisdiction code, and 541 of them carry a Mitman legal description; 666 platted lots now make up 541 parcels. Two of the other three are a two-lot plat recorded in 2015. 471 parcels carry a single-family residential use code, and the median lot under that code is about a fifth of an acre, roughly 8,300 square feet. The City of Tucson's R-1 residence zone covers 493 of the 544 parcels. Commercial and office zoning is confined to the edges: C-2 on 23 parcels and C-1 on one along the Speedway Boulevard frontage, and C-1 or O-3 on twelve more near Craycroft Road and along Fifth Street. Every edge checks against Pima County's own centrelines: Craycroft Road on the west, Fifth Street on the south, Sahuara Avenue on the east and Speedway Boulevard on the north. Inside the line is about 165 acres; of the 585 official address points inside it, 533 are in ZIP code 85711 and 52 in 85712. The whole boundary is inside the City of Tucson: annexation ordinance 1895, effective in April 1959, covers all 121 interior sample points, with no deannexation, and all 121 fall in Ward 6. The City-registered Mitman neighborhood association, registered in May 2007, is returned at all 121 points, and its mapped outline runs within about ten metres of this boundary all the way round. A registered neighborhood association is a voluntary civic body and not a homeowners association. Pima County publishes no register of homeowners associations, so whether a recorded declaration runs with a particular lot is answered by the title work and by nothing on this page. Read the title commitment and any resale disclosure before writing an offer. FEMA's flood map returns Zone X at all 121 interior sample points. A sample point is not a flood determination for any particular house. Pima County's Davis-Monthan Air Force Base vicinity layer covers all 121 points. None of the base's noise control districts or air installation compatible use zones reaches any of them, and neither does the Tucson Airport Authority's avigation easement and disclosure area. Whether an airport disclosure applies to a sale is a question for the specific address and the contract. The county's park, trail and point-of-interest layers return nothing inside the boundary. Measured from the middle of it, Sewell Elementary School at 425 North Sahuara Avenue is about four-tenths of a mile away, just south across Fifth Street; Park Place, the shopping mall at 5870 East Broadway Boulevard, is about nine-tenths of a mile; and Tucson Medical Center at 5301 East Grant Road is about a mile and a half. Schools are Tucson Unified throughout. Pima County's attendance-area layer returns Sewell Elementary, Booth-Fickett Math/Science K-8 School at 450 South Montego Drive and Rincon High School at 421 North Arcadia Avenue at every sample point, and LiveBy's assignment query names the same three. Tucson Unified is weighing the closure or consolidation of up to ten schools, with a board vote scheduled for December 2026, and assignments are drawn by address and change, so confirm a specific address with the district. The neighborhood carries the plat's name; no record consulted says who Mitman was. Harlan Heights, which has its own page here, lies north across Speedway Boulevard.
