Glenview, a neighborhood in Chandler, Arizona, has transitioned from a low diversity community to a white majority area with moderate diversity between 2013 and 2022. The population of Glenview in 2022 was 563, with a median income of $97,412. The neighborhood is characterized by well-maintained parks and a family-friendly atmosphere.
Over the past decade, Glenview has experienced significant changes in its racial composition. In 2013, the white population comprised 77% of the neighborhood, categorizing it as "Low Diversity." By 2022, the white population decreased to 61%, reclassifying the area as a "White Majority" community with moderate diversity. The Hispanic population demonstrated the most substantial growth, increasing from 16% in 2013 to 27% in 2022. This shift suggests a trend towards a "Transitional Community" with increasing diversity. The Asian population remained relatively stable, while there were slight increases in Black and Native American residents.
The median income in Glenview has fluctuated, reaching a peak of $112,844 in 2017 before declining to $97,412 in 2022. This decline coincides with the increasing diversity in the neighborhood, potentially indicating a correlation between demographic changes and economic shifts. Despite this recent decline, the median income remains relatively high, suggesting that Glenview continues to attract affluent residents from diverse backgrounds. The population has grown steadily from 455 in 2010 to 563 in 2022, indicating that the neighborhood maintains its desirability despite changes in racial composition and income levels.
The demographic shifts observed in Glenview align with broader national trends of increasing diversity in suburban areas. Many U.S. suburbs have experienced similar transitions from predominantly white communities to more diverse neighborhoods over the past decade. The decline in median income, while notable, still places Glenview above the national median household income of approximately $70,000 in 2022. This suggests that despite economic fluctuations, the neighborhood remains relatively affluent compared to national averages.
The growth of the Hispanic population in Glenview mirrors the overall growth of the Hispanic population in Arizona and the broader Southwest region. This trend is part of a larger demographic shift occurring across the United States, particularly in Sun Belt states. Glenview's evolution from a low-diversity to a moderately diverse white-majority community reflects broader national trends of increasing suburban diversity. While economic indicators have fluctuated, the neighborhood remains relatively affluent and continues to grow, suggesting that it has successfully navigated these demographic changes while maintaining its appeal to residents.
