Expansive Living at Laveen’s Rural Edge
Located off 56th Avenue just south of Baseline Road, Greens Outer Limits lies about 8 miles southwest of downtown Phoenix. This rare rural-style neighborhood includes roughly 30–50 homes set on large lots, many around ¾ to 1 acre, offering homeowners more space, privacy, and freedom than typical suburban developments.

Open Space Over Parks
While there are no formal community parks, the expansive lots and natural desert surroundings provide ample space for families, pets, and personal outdoor projects. -
