I am a transplant to Arizona; I made that trek across the desert almost seventeen (17) years ago and I have not looked back. If you are looking for beautiful winter weather, this is the place. If you are looking for Mountain views, this is the place. If you are looking for Blue skies - this is the place. If you are looking for low maintenance yard work - this is the place. If you are looking for pro-sports - this is the place; less than 20 miles away you will find Hockey, Football, Baseball, Basketball, Tennis, Car Racing and if you like gaming, we have horse racing, and casinos. Chandler, Arizona is one of the many cities that surround the Phoenix Metro Area. It was named after Dr. Alexander John Chandler who was a veterinary surgeon, who in 1891 purchased a parcel of land and supplied irrigation to the desert landscape, and within a short period of time, a town was formed and businesses began to thrive.
