2012 Map of Sahuarita

About this map

Sahuarita and its surrounding residential developments sit in the Pima County desert as a testament to early 21st-century suburban expansion along the Interstate 19 corridor. The community is anchored by the Sahuarita Post Office and extends into neighborhoods like Sahuarita Heights and East Sahuarita. The arid landscape is defined by the ephemeral Santa Cruz River and the Box Canyon Wash, which cut through the terrain near the settlement of Duval. Significant transportation infrastructure is visible, including the Helmet Peak Interchange and the Duval Mine Road Interchange, highlighting the area's connection to regional mining and transit. Further south, features like Pear Tank reflect the traditional ranching water management necessary in this high-desert environment, while a dense network of local roads including W Williams Ranch Rd and S Santa Rita Rd serves the growing residential tracts.
