School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Great place to live!

I lived in a 1 bedroom at Altamira for two years and loved it. The views are unbeatable and the location is private while being close to everything in town. Management is fantastic. Very responsive to any concerns and they view you as a member of the family. Pool is always in great condition and all grounds are well kept. If there is anything that needs replaced or fixed in the apartment the maintenance crew responds very quickly and are respectful and courteous. Good community with great people! Highly recommend!

I love this place!

I've been living at Altamira Apartments for two years now and I have to say that I love it! The community is always clean and quiet. The office management team is very polite and professional. Whenever we've needed something serviced, the maintenance guy (who is awesome by the way) would come to fix it very promptly. This place centrally located from downtown Tucson and the Foothills with bike and hiking trails nearby. I like that it's on a hill so you can view all of Tucson. Plus, the view of the Catalinas is incredible! Great place to live!!! I'd recommend it.
