Description
A Rich Heritage - A Prosperous Future
Surprise was little more than a gas station and few small houses in 1938 when founder, Homer C. Ludden, a Glendale letter carrier, and former state legislator turned real estate developer, subdivided the rural square-mile parcel into low-cost home sites for the area’s agricultural workers, naming it after his Nebraska hometown.
The population has mushroomed from 10,737 in 1995 to an estimated 96,000 today and, with a new home completed almost every hour.
There were nearly 5,000 single-family home starts in 2003, with more than 6,000 expected in 2004. Boasting 28 of Arizona ’s top 50 home builders, Surprise offers world-class resort retirement living in developments such as Del Webb’s Sun City Grand and Continental Home’s Arizona Traditions, as well as award-winning master-planned family communities. Choose from hundreds of floor plans in the 26 subdivisions now under construction.
