Search Homes in Gilbert
Back in the day, Gilbert was once known as the “Hay Shipping Capital of the World.” Now, Gilbert is one of the fastest growing communities and largest towns in the United States, spanning 72.6 square miles just southeast of the Phoenix metro area.
Originally incorporated in 1920, William “Bobby” Gilbert provided land for the Arizona Eastern Railway in 1902 to allow a line between Phoenix and Florence. The rail siding and the town that sprung up around it came to be known as Gilbert and has seen nearly unparalleled growth in the last three decades.
Despite this rapid growth, however, Gilbert has received many accolades for being one of the top five safest cities and one of the best places to live in the country. The city is also acclaimed for it’s focus on education, boasting a nationally ranked K-12 education system that includes public schools, magnet and charter schools, and an impressive 90% graduation rate, with nearly 40% of the town’s population holding a bachelor’s degree or higher.
