About Anthem
Located at the base of Daisy Mountain, approximately five miles north of Carefree Highway off Interstate 17, Anthem is a master-planned community that provides all the amenities, services and conveniences of a big city, yet offers the serenity and charm of a small town.
Beautiful and authentic desert landscaping is utilized and maintained throughout Anthem and it may be surprising to see how much bright and robust color is found on native plant life in the spring and summer months. Weather is absolutely delightful most of the year in Anthem. The area sees very little rain until Monsoon Season in late summer where occasional heavy rains fall, thunder booms and lightning brightens the sky. The high heat synonymous with desert living generally takes place in the summer months, but with the Community Center’s pool and Water Park available for use by Anthem residents and their guests, the Country Club’s pool available for its residents and their guests, and cooler weather accessible in the nearby high country, it is relatively easy to beat the summertime heat.
From young couples to growing families to active older adults, Anthem is the destination for people yearning for a complete lifestyle in a genuine community setting. And there are a variety of community settings from which to choose, all of which offer an impressive array of uniquely-styled homes and amenities.
