simple living


10th Street and Oak, Coranado Historic, in downtown Phoenix
Some historic areas have beautiful, well kept homes that are occupied by those who can afford the higher cost and maintainance of a home over 75 years old. In Phoenix's Coranado neighborhood, there are quaint, 2 bedroom homes from the 1920's, usually owned by singles or couples in the upper-middle income bracket. These historic homes are scattered amoung small, inner city homes or apartments, usually rented by those in the lower-middle income bracket. This combination makes Coranado more affordable, edgy and characteristic of an urban neighborhood.
