Rio Rico is a hidden gem just an hour south of Tucson. This small town with 19,000 residents is the kind of place where you know your neighbors and strangers wave at you on the road. It is a town large enough to offer modern conveniences like schools, shopping, a hardware store, groceries and restaurants, but small enough to avoid the noise and pollution of the big city. The schools here are excellent and cost of living is low, making this an attractive place for young families. With an elevation of 3,600 feet above sea level, the weather here is much cooler than Phoenix or Tucson, making it an ideal for outdoor adventures.
Rio Rico is a very safe place to live. Nogales, Arizona (population 20,000) has many employers and is just nine miles south and close to the Mexican Border. You can also park your car on the U.S. side of the border and walk to Nogales, Sonora, Mexico (population 220,000) where you can find endless stores, restaurants, healthcare providers, and entertainment options. If you prefer to stay on the U.S. side of the border, Tucson (population 540,000) is easily accessible from I-19.
This property is in a prime location in one of Southern Arizona’s most desirable towns and priced competitively. Don’t miss out and contact us now!

Rachel made the entire land purchase a "piece of cake". She walked me through everything and was right on top of things. As soon as I sent the money, the deed was notarized and recorded only a couple of days later. I just visited my new property in Wolf Creek Montana today and I am very pleased with the purchase. Thank you again 😊
The Ashbrook Land Company is a superb company. Their communication skills and desire to help you obtain the land of your dreams is top notch. Probably some of the best service I’ve had when buying a piece of land. I would recommend them to anyone.
I just purchased a piece of land from Ashbrook Land Co., LLC, and I am very happy with the professional yet personal approach that Bob and Rachel Ashbrook gave to me.The whole process was easy and painless, and only took a couple of days. Everything was done online, but I felt completely secure giving out my personal information, because I think the Ashbrooks are truly honest people to deal with.
