Tolleson, Arizona, is a small yet vibrant city nestled in Maricopa County, just west of Phoenix. Established in 1912 by Walter G. Tolleson, who moved to the area in 1910 and began subdividing his 160-acre ranch, the city has grown from a rural farming community into a significant industrial and residential hub. Known historically as the "Vegetable Center of the World" due to its agricultural prominence, Tolleson has shifted towards industry, now hosting over twenty Fortune 500 companies and employing more than 20,000 people despite its modest population of around 7,216 as per the 2020 census. Its strategic location near major transportation routes like Interstate 10 and the Union Pacific Railroad has made it an essential employment center for the West Valley. Tolleson also boasts a strong community spirit, reflected in its local events like the Whoopee Daze Festival, and it offers a variety of cultural experiences through its art installations and parks like the Estrella Mountain Regional Park.
Tolleson currently has 47 single family homes for sale, 3 lots for sale, and 2 manufactured homes for sale. There are 2 foreclosures for sale, and 1 short sale. For anyone looking for a brand new home, there is 1 new construction home for sale.
