Tempe an example of growing Hipsturbia neighborhood

More from this show

Hipsturbia is a new real estate trend where people are moving to the suburbs but ones that offer “walkability,” public transit, vibrant downtowns and restaurants, recreation and retail. The national 2020 Real Estate report lists Tempe as an example of a growing Hipsturbia neighborhood, because it offers Mill Avenue shops, brew pubs, restaurants, entertainment and more. We’ll talk to real estate agent Melisa Camp of HomeSmart about this trend and what it will mean for the future of housing developments and home buying.
