Carefree Real Estate & Information The town of Carefree was conceived in the mid 1950’s, the brainchild of K.T. Palmer and Tom Darlington, a pair of investors who envisioned a master-planned town smack in the middle of the Arizona desert.  The pair acquired the land in 1955 and homebuilding began in 1958.  By the 1970’s, about 300 homes had been constructed, and some of the roads were paved.  Today, the Northern Phoenix suburb boasts a population of nearly 4,000, and the town features homes and amenities that attract people from around the world in search of rest, relaxation and the lifestyle found only in the Southwestern United States.   Carefree Real Estate For Sale Up to $250K $250K to $300K $300K to $350K $350K to $400K $400K to $550K Over $550 From the beginning, developers began ...
