History & geography

History

Anthem was developed by Del Webb in 1998 as a master-planned community in the foothills approximately north of downtown Phoenix. Anthem has been described as one of the best places to raise a family by Parenting magazine and one of the best family friendly neighborhoods in the Phoenix area by Phoenix Magazine. Anthem is well known for its year-round activities, primarily geared towards families. The community center offers youth soccer, baseball, basketball, tennis, various forms of martial arts, and swimming amongst other activities for children as young as toddlers. Homeowner's association dues cover a pool larger than Olympic size, a community water park with slides and various depths for all swimming levels, paths that crisscross the town, bike paths that circle all major streets, and pocket parks scattered throughout the town. In addition, there is a 63-acre community park complete with an amphitheater, many grassy areas, volleyball, soccer, football, baseball, pickleball and little league fields along with a train, pavilion, lakes and pagodas. More recently built, are the pickleball courts at the Anthem Community Center. The facility now has 14 outdoor concrete courts that are fully dedicated to pickleball, with permanent lines and nets. The courts are private and operate on a first-come, first-served basis, as they cannot be reserved. Players also have convenient access to restrooms, water, and court lighting. On July 31, 2012, a storm dropped of rain on Anthem in the span of 90 minutes, causing widespread flooding that damaged homes and required the rescue of nine people. A subsequent investigation into the flood concluded that the storm was a "one-in-1,000 year rain catastrophe".
