shopping centers even featuring a brand new Dicks Sporting Goods. There is no shortage of education in the area
as well. With the addition of Arizona State University Polytechnic Campus and
Chandler-Gilbert Community College, Gilbert has become one the most desirable
towns in Phoenix. Located close to the University
is the Williams-Gateway Airport. This airport handles everything from major
commercial aircrafts to single engine planes.

Phoenix Sky-Harbor which is only about 25 minutes away.
