Page Arizona Real Estate Market Report — May 2026
Page Arizona Real Estate moves on a completely different rhythm than Phoenix or Tucson… and that is exactly why it has become one of the more interesting small-town markets in the state. Single-family inventory sits at roughly 15 active listings for a city of 7,500 people. The May 2026 median sale price is approximately $545,000, with average days on market near 94. Buyers are not competing for tract-builder homes here. They are buying federal-employee housing, custom mesa-top homes with Lake Powell views, and short-term rental investment properties that benefit from three million annual tourist visitors. Sellers benefit from supply that almost never floods the market… but they also need realistic pricing because financing options are narrower than in the Phoenix metro.

Prices & Volume… May 2026
Page Arizona Real Estate has held its value into spring 2026 even while parts of the Phoenix metro have softened. The May median sale price near $545,000 represents roughly 6% year-over-year appreciation, driven by tight inventory, federal-employer demand, and steady short-term rental investor interest. Average sold price near $565,000 reflects a small premium from a handful of larger Lake Powell-view homes that have closed in the past 90 days. Price per square foot averaged around $271 across recent sales, well above the Coconino County rural baseline and reflecting the cost of building in a remote mesa-top city.
Volume is small by metro standards… 8 to 12 closings per month is normal in Page. With only about 15 active single-family listings at any given time, the months-of-supply metric stays balanced to slightly seller-favorable. Days on market run near 94, longer than Phoenix metro markets but typical for tourism-dependent small cities where some buyers are second-home or investor purchasers from out of state. Sale-to-list ratio at 97.5% suggests sellers are still negotiating, but well-priced homes near schools, the golf course, or with Lake Powell views still see competitive activity.
Page Neighborhoods & Subdivisions
Page is small enough that the entire city sits within one zip code (86040), but it is organized into several distinct subdivisions that buyers and sellers should know by name. Most active listings come from a handful of recurring neighborhood names verified on the local MLS. Below are the verified Page subdivisions where homes are actively trading in 2026.
Page Townsite (Original Page)
The original 1950s-era city core built for Glen Canyon Dam workers. Compact lots, mid-century block construction, walkable to City Hall, the library, schools, and downtown businesses. Strong rental demand from federal employees and seasonal staff.
Greenehaven (Phases 7, 7-2, 8)
Modern subdivision on the south side of the mesa with 3 to 5-bedroom homes typically 1,800 to 2,200 square feet. One of the most active resale neighborhoods in Page. Note that some addresses sit just outside official city limits in unincorporated Coconino County… verify jurisdiction before purchase.
Lake Powell Estates
Established neighborhood north of downtown closer to Lake Powell Boulevard. Smaller lots and mostly single-story 3-bed, 2-bath homes built in the 1970s and 1980s. Popular with full-time residents who want walkability to grocery and government offices.
Tower Butte Estates
Newer-construction homes on the southeast side of the mesa with views toward Tower Butte and the Vermilion Cliffs. Typically 3-bed, 3-bath floor plans around 2,000 square feet. Quieter pocket favored by professionals and small families.
Rim View / Mesa Rim Area
Homes along the mesa rim with elevated outlooks toward Glen Canyon and the surrounding desert. Mix of original Page Townsite-era homes and remodels. Premium locations command the higher end of the range.
Lake Powell Golf Course Area
Homes adjacent to or with views of the 18-hole Lake Powell National Golf Course on the south side of the mesa. Attractive to retirees and second-home buyers. Some lots have unobstructed views toward Lake Powell.
Note on Greenehaven: portions of the larger Greenehaven community sit in unincorporated Coconino County rather than inside Page city limits. This affects which agency (Page PD vs. Coconino County Sheriff) responds to calls, school zoning, and which utilities serve the property. Always verify city-vs-county status before writing an offer. All address verification cross-referenced with active 86040 listings.
Page’s Neighboring Cities & Surrounding Markets
Page sits within Coconino County… the second-largest county in the United States by land area and home to Flagstaff, the Grand Canyon, and most of Arizona’s high-country tourism economy. Page is the northernmost market in Coconino County and the gateway to Lake Powell. Buyers comparing Page to other Northern Arizona and high-country markets typically also research the following cities.
Explore All of Coconino County Real Estate
Coconino County spans 18,617 square miles from the Grand Canyon to the Mogollon Rim and includes Flagstaff, Page, Sedona’s Coconino portion, and the Grand Canyon village. Median values and inventory vary dramatically between Page’s tourism economy, Flagstaff’s university-anchored market, and the rural high country. See the full county-level guide for comparative data.
▶Coconino County Real Estate Guide◀Schools & School Districts
Per the Arizona Department of Education FY25 A-F Letter Grades (released April 15, 2026), Page Unified School District #8 earned an overall B grade at the district (LEA) level across its six reporting schools. Page is one of the better-rated rural districts in Northern Arizona on the FY25 release. Most of the city is served by Page USD #8; small portions of the larger Page area fall into Fredonia-Moccasin Unified District (rated C at the LEA level). Charter option Glen Canyon Outdoor Academy operates independently and also earned a B from ADE.
Page Unified School District #8… B-Rated District
PUSD #8 covers most of Page and serves about 2,000 students from preschool through high school across six schools. The high school program is the strength of the district, posting a B letter grade with 73.22 total points earned and a perfect 10.00 graduation rate score in the FY25 release. Manson Mesa High School, an alternative-pathway high school within the district, earned an A grade with 70.81 points and a 97.41% percentage earned… the highest performing school in the district by percentage.
Charter and Alternative Options
Glen Canyon Outdoor Academy is the only public charter school physically located in Page. It serves K-8 students with an outdoor and environmental education focus and earned a B grade from ADE FY25 at 68.77 total points. The charter is a separate Local Education Agency (LEA) from Page USD.

Source note: All letter grades on this page reflect the official Arizona Department of Education FY25 A-F release (April 15, 2026), the most current state-issued data available. Third-party aggregators (Niche, GreatSchools, SchoolGrade) are secondary references only and do not override official ADE grades.
Safety & Crime in Page
Page’s official crime statistics need careful interpretation because of one specific factor: more than three million tourist visitors pass through this city of 7,500 residents every year. CrimeGrade and similar per-resident analyses divide raw crime counts (which include incidents involving visitors at Lake Powell marinas, hotels, and attractions) by the small permanent population, producing rates that look much higher than what full-time residents actually experience in their neighborhoods. Residential life on the mesa is quiet… but buyers should understand the data honestly rather than glossing over it.
Law Enforcement Jurisdiction in Page
Page is policed by the Page Police Department, the primary and sole municipal law enforcement agency within city limits. The department is headquartered at 808 Coppermine Road, Page, AZ 86040 and is one of approximately 35 agencies statewide accredited under the Arizona Law Enforcement Accreditation Program (ALEAP). Page PD employs roughly 25 sworn officers and 21 civilian staff. The Coconino County Sheriff’s Office holds jurisdiction in unincorporated areas just outside city limits (including parts of Greenehaven and the lands surrounding Glen Canyon NRA), and the Arizona Department of Public Safety provides highway patrol coverage on U.S. Route 89 and Arizona State Route 98. National Park Service rangers and Bureau of Reclamation officers handle federal-land enforcement at Glen Canyon Dam and Lake Powell itself.
Page Safety Snapshot
The numbers below come from CrimeGrade and reflect per-resident crime rates inflated by tourist activity. Residents in established neighborhoods like Lake Powell Estates, Tower Butte Estates, and the mesa rim consistently describe Page as a quiet community.
For context, Page’s central neighborhoods tend to record lower crime rates than the north side of the city near the Walmart-anchored retail corridor and the visitor-heavy hotel district along Lake Powell Boulevard. Per-capita statistics are not the right metric for a city whose service population balloons to roughly 400% of resident population during peak tourist months. Buyers focused on quiet residential settings should look at Lake Powell Estates, Tower Butte Estates, and the mesa-rim subdivisions; investors targeting short-term rentals are typically located closer to the U.S. 89 commercial corridor and accept the trade-off of higher activity for higher rental demand.
Major Employers & Commute
Page’s economy rests on three pillars: federal employment at Glen Canyon Dam and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, regional public services (school district, hospital, city government), and tourism. Because Page is geographically isolated (the nearest large city, Flagstaff, is over two hours south), most residents work within the city itself. The federal-employee population provides stable, recession-resistant household income that supports the housing market through tourism downturns.
Top employers within Page and commuting distance
The Navajo Generating Station, formerly one of Page’s largest single employers, ceased coal-fired operations in 2019. The site remains under environmental remediation by Salt River Project. The loss of NGS reshaped Page’s economy but federal employment and tourism have absorbed much of the impact. Page Municipal Airport offers regional connections to Phoenix and Denver for residents who travel for medical care or business outside the immediate area.
Condos & Townhomes… May 2026
Page does not have a meaningful conventional condo market. The handful of attached-housing products that exist are largely older townhome-style units in the original Page Townsite area and a small number of newer townhome projects. Inventory is typically under 5 active listings at any given month. Most buyers seeking attached or low-maintenance housing look at single-family homes on smaller lots in Lake Powell Estates or Page Townsite rather than true condos.
Because of the small sample size, we do not publish month-by-month condo metrics for Page. When attached units do trade, they typically fall in the $250,000 to $450,000 range depending on age, square footage, and view orientation. If you are specifically interested in a Page condo or townhome, a dedicated full-time agent who watches the 86040 MLS daily is the only way to catch the limited inventory before it sells. Send us your criteria and we will set up immediate alerts.
▶What’s MY Page Condo Worth?◀What Page Residents Say
The strongest themes from published Page community reviews focus on natural beauty, federal-employer stability, tight-knit small-town atmosphere, and the limitations of small-town infrastructure. Anonymized themes from public review sources are summarized below.
“Living in Page is like being on permanent vacation at one of the most beautiful places on earth. The lake, the canyons, the sunsets… and a tight community where everyone knows their neighbor. Tourism gets busy but the off-season is peaceful.”
“We moved here for a federal job and stayed because the schools are better than people give them credit for, the commute is five minutes from anywhere to anywhere, and our kids have learned to fish, hike, and boat as a normal part of growing up.”
“The trade-off is real. Page is remote. Flagstaff is two and a half hours, Phoenix is over four. Specialty medical care, certain shopping, and big-city services require a road trip. But that is also why this place still feels like the small-town America we grew up in.”
“Short-term rental income covers our mortgage in the busy season. Page has one of the most reliable vacation rental markets in the Southwest because Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend are not going anywhere. The city is reasonable about regulation, which matters.”
Why Page Arizona Real Estate Matters in 2026
Page is one of those Arizona markets that does not fit the standard playbook. It is not a Phoenix-metro tract market, not a Tucson university town, and not a Verde Valley luxury retreat. It is a federal-employee city of 7,500 people perched on a mesa above Lake Powell, where the resident population stays remarkably stable while three million tourists rotate through every year. That combination produces a housing market with characteristics most Arizona buyers do not even know to look for.
Key drivers supporting Page Arizona Real Estate include:
- Federal employment anchor… Glen Canyon Dam and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area provide recession-resistant household income that does not move with the rest of the Arizona economy.
- Irreplaceable geography… Lake Powell, Antelope Canyon, and Horseshoe Bend are world-renowned destinations. New competing markets cannot be created.
- Tight inventory… 15 active single-family listings for a city of 7,500 keeps months of supply low and supports steady values.
- Improving schools… Page Unified School District #8 earned a B from ADE FY25, with Manson Mesa High posting an A and Page High School at a B with a perfect graduation rate score.
- Short-term rental income… Page is one of the strongest STR markets in the Southwest. Antelope Canyon tour demand keeps occupancy high outside the deepest winter weeks.
- Custom build option… no national-builder tract competition means custom builders set the new-construction tone. Buyers tired of cookie-cutter floor plans appreciate this.
- Coconino County positioning… gateway to Grand Canyon, Lake Powell, and the broader Southwest tourism economy. Page is the only Arizona city positioned at the heart of all of it.
- Single-agency law enforcement… Page PD is ALEAP-accredited and primary jurisdiction inside city limits. Clean accountability structure compared to dual-jurisdiction urban villages.
- Sub-$600K entry price… a median near $545,000 still gives buyers access to a unique market at meaningfully lower cost than Sedona or Flagstaff luxury.
This is a strategic long-term demand market, not a speculative one. Page does not need a new freeway, a new chip plant, or a new master-planned community to appreciate. It already has everything that drives durable demand: federal employment, world-class natural attractions, and a finite footprint that constrains supply.
May 2026… Buyer & Seller Takeaways
- Buyers: Inventory is tight at 15 active listings. Move quickly on well-priced homes near schools, the golf course, or with Lake Powell views. Verify whether the property sits in city limits or unincorporated county before writing an offer.
- Sellers: Page’s median is at a 6% YoY high. Realistic pricing at or just below comparable closings still produces 97.5% sale-to-list ratios. Highlight any short-term-rental income, view orientation, and proximity to Lake Powell access.
- Investors: Short-term rental demand from 3M+ annual visitors makes Page one of the stronger STR markets in Arizona. Confirm city STR licensing before purchase. Greenehaven and Tower Butte Estates produce the cleanest STR returns.
- Federal employees: Bureau of Reclamation and National Park Service relocations are the strongest single buyer pool in Page. Time your purchase to PCS season for the best inventory matching.
- Second-home buyers: Lake Powell views and golf-course adjacency drive premium pricing. Plan to spend $625K and up for view properties with newer construction.
- Schools-focused families: Page Unified School District improved to a B at the LEA level on the FY25 ADE release. Manson Mesa High earned an A. Verify school assignment by exact address.
Frequently Asked Questions
The single-family median sale price in Page, AZ for May 2026 is approximately $545,000, with an average sold price near $565,000 and price per square foot around $271. The market is balanced to slightly seller-favorable with limited inventory and roughly 15 active single-family listings.
Page is policed by the Page Police Department (single-agency jurisdiction), an ALEAP-accredited force with 25 sworn officers headquartered at 808 Coppermine Road. CrimeGrade rates the city in the 5th percentile (F) based on per-resident crime rates, but those rates are heavily inflated by the city’s 3 million-plus annual tourist visitors. Residential neighborhoods on the mesa are quiet and family-oriented.
Page Unified School District #8 serves the city, earning an overall B grade from the Arizona Department of Education FY25 release. Page High School is a B-rated school with 73.22 points and a perfect 10.00 graduation rate score. Manson Mesa High School earned an A-rated alternative school grade at 70.81 points. Glen Canyon Outdoor Academy (charter) earned a B at 68.77 points.
Page uses zip code 86040, which covers the entire city plus surrounding Glen Canyon National Recreation Area and parts of the Navajo Nation. Greenehaven (an adjacent unincorporated community) shares the 86040 zip but sits outside Page city limits in unincorporated Coconino County.
Page does not have organized national-builder new construction communities like Phoenix-metro markets. New homes in Page are typically custom builds on individual lots within established neighborhoods such as Lake Powell Estates, Tower Butte Estates, or Rim View. Buyers seeking new construction work with local custom builders or buy resale homes built in the past 10 to 20 years.
Page’s largest employers are the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (Glen Canyon Dam), the National Park Service (Glen Canyon National Recreation Area headquarters), Page Unified School District, City of Page, Banner Page Hospital, Lake Powell Resort and Marinas, Antelope Canyon tour operators, and Walmart. Tourism and federal government drive the economy.
Page has limited condo and townhome inventory. The attached-housing market is small with only a handful of active listings in any given month. Most buyers purchase single-family homes; the few condos and townhomes that trade typically fall in the $250,000 to $450,000 range.
Page is one of the only Arizona markets backed by federal employment (Glen Canyon Dam, National Park Service), permanent tourism demand from 3 million annual visitors, and irreplaceable geography (Lake Powell, Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bend). Short-term rental demand stays strong year-round, schools are improving (PUSD #8 earned a B from ADE FY25), and inventory remains tight enough to support steady values even when statewide markets cool.
