Getting around

Interstate 10 runs through Goodyear, and State Route 303 (Loop 303) connects the city to other parts of the West Valley. The city has been improving the Estrella Parkway/PebbleCreek Parkway interchange with I-10 to add turn lanes and through lanes in both directions. Goodyear is roughly 17 miles west of downtown Phoenix, and the Phoenix Goodyear Airport is located within the city.

Most homes in Goodyear are traditional Spanish-style houses built within the last 20 to 30 years in master-planned communities, alongside some mid-to-late 20th-century ranch-style homes in areas like Historic Goodyear.

Palm Valley, north of I-10, spans 9,000 acres with varying home sizes, while PebbleCreek is designed for active adult living with golf and fitness amenities.
