Set in Yuma County, Arizona, suburban Avenue B and C is known for its ranch-style homes close to local shopping and dining. Omar Delgaldillo, a Yuma local and a Realtor with Realty One Group Gateway says “It’s one of the more popular areas along with 16th Street and the Yuma Mall area.” Ranch-style homes along residential streets without sidewalks are typical, as are manufactured homes in mobile communities.

Shopping and Dining

“You’ve got stores nearby, so you don’t have to travel 15 minutes to the store,” says Delgaldillo. Residents grab groceries at the centrally located Walmart Neighborhood Market on West 8th Street. Further east along the street, Duron's Restaurante y Cantina serves authentic Sonoran-style Mexican cuisine from third-generation family recipes in a casual, social setting with live music on Fridays and Saturdays. Next door, Mr. Mango Snack Bar offers ice cream desserts and munchies like walking tacos and elote en vaso (cooked corn in a cup with Mexican seasoning). Delgaldillo says the Yuma Palms Regional Center, a shopping mall 5 miles southeast, is popular for its national chain restaurants and walkability. At the mall, folks might grab home essentials from Target, dine at Chili’s or catch the latest blockbuster at Harkins Theatres Yuma Palms 14. For a night out, Get Axed Yuma is a sports bar at the mall where thrill-seekers can try axe-throwing or compete in weekly trivia on Tuesdays.
