About Wakefield

Wakefield is a south-side Tucson neighborhood of houses of about 576 acres, bounded by South 12th Avenue on the west, South 6th Avenue on the east, West Irvington Road on the south, and West 44th Street and Interstate 10 across the north. The name is on the ground in one place only: Wakefield Middle School stands inside the boundary. No street, recorded plat or registered neighborhood association carries it. The City's registered National City Northwest association covers the southern part of the boundary, returning at 66 of 114 interior sample points, and the northern part returns no registered association at all. Twenty-eight plats lie wholly inside, every one recorded between 1915 and 1946, among them six National City filings of 1931 to 1945 that hold 1,259 of the 1,530 platted lots; there is no post-war plat. Pima County records 2,120 parcels wholly inside, and not one is zoned R-1: 1,567 are R-2, 206 R-3, and the commercial parcels sit along the 6th Avenue and 12th Avenue frontages and the Interstate 10 end. All of it is in the City of Tucson, under annexation ordinances of 1956 and 1960, and in Ward 1. Rose across 12th Avenue to the west, Fairgrounds across 6th Avenue to the east and Sunnyside across Irvington Road to the south have their own pages here. The Tucson Rodeo Grounds are across 6th Avenue, and El Pueblo Park with its county library is across Irvington Road. The 91 Residential closings over the three years to September 2026 were all houses, with no condominium or townhouse among them, and they closed around a $239,000 median and about $192 a square foot, on a median of 1,238 square feet, built to a 1950 median; the average was about $230,800. Eighty-three of the 91 closed between $125,000 and $325,000. The median listing went under contract in about 40 days, among the 90 records that carry the figure, and the record closed at 98 cents on the list dollar; 23 sold above their asking price and 29 took at least one price reduction. Twenty residential income closings over the same three years are not part of these figures. These are closed sales, not homes currently for sale, and a reading of this record rather than a rule. On the FEMA flood map 112 of the 114 interior sample points are in Zone X; two are in Zone AE, a special flood hazard area with a base flood elevation, where a federally backed mortgage requires flood insurance, and so are two of the 1,724 house and multi-unit parcel centre points tested. Pima County regulates the Rodeo Wash, the Tucson Diversion Channel and several smaller washes through the boundary, so confirm the zone for a specific address. The Julian Wash Greenway, part of the county's Chuck Huckelberry Loop, and a Rodeo Wash path both run inside. Every point tested is inside the Tucson Airport Authority's avigation easement and disclosure area for Tucson International Airport, a development-review area rather than a seller notice; none is inside the Davis-Monthan Air Force Base vicinity. Whether a parcel carries a recorded avigation easement is a title question. LiveBy's assigned schools are Tucson Unified's Hollinger K-8, which stands inside the boundary, C E Rose PreK-8 and Mission View Elementary for the elementary grades, with Utterback Middle and Pueblo High above them; Pima County's attendance layer gives Hollinger at 69, Rose at 31 and Mission View at 14 of the 114 interior points, and Utterback and Pueblo at all of them. Wakefield Middle School is open but is not the assigned middle school here. Tucson Unified's governing board is scheduled to vote on December 8, 2026 on school consolidation recommendations the superintendent published in October 2026, so confirm a specific address with the district. The boundary's address points carry ZIP codes 85714 and 85713.
