About Rancho Sahuarita
The community's developer says it opened in 2001 and now has more than 7,000 homes and 25,000 residents. Those are the developer's own figures, so treat them as approximate.
The developer also describes more than 30 miles of trails and more than 15 parks around the lake. Town of Sahuarita permit records place the Marketplace at Rancho Sahuarita at 15920 S Rancho Sahuarita Blvd.
The newest neighborhood is Entrada Del Toro. A local real estate guide places it between Sahuarita Road and El Toro Road, just off Interstate 19.

Homes of very different ages under one name
Building is still underway, so a Rancho Sahuarita address can mean a home from the early 2000s or one finished this year. Town records show new permits in Entrada Del Toro and other sections as recently as April 2026.
We do not guess what is inside your walls from the neighborhood name. The year built, the date on your water heater label, and your repair history tell you far more. The Pima County Assessor record for your address lists the year built.
Before you call about a problem
Short answers make the call faster.
- Where your main water shutoff is, and whether it turns easily.
- The year the house was built, and whether the water heater is the original.
- Whether the problem is one fixture or the whole house.
- Whether your community association has rules about contractors or exterior work.
- Your street and cross street, so the plumber can find the house in a large community.
Plumbing services homeowners here ask about
A typical single-family home needs help most often with a failed water heater, a slow or backed-up drain, or a fixture that leaks. For a clog that keeps coming back, see drain cleaning. For a damp spot or an unexplained high water bill, see leak detection.
We have no local data on which problems are most common in Rancho Sahuarita, so we do not claim any. For a toilet that runs or will not flush, see toilet repair. For an upgrade, see tankless water heaters.
Water and sewer: who to ask
Water and sewer service around Sahuarita is not handled by one provider for every home. Your bill names your water provider, and the Town runs a Wastewater Department that answers questions at 520-344-7100.
Before you pay for work on a main line, confirm which provider is responsible for the line in front of your house. That one call can decide who pays.
