Mediterranean, Tuscan and very modern homes are interspersed with more traditional architectural choices such as Santa Fe Pueblo style buildings. Fountain Hills features the second-largest manmade fountain in the town square, from which this community takes its name. There are home sites located along all of the golf courses, including Desert Canyon Golf Club, that appeal to those looking for a relaxing place to live.
