Housing in the Payson Region is as diverse as the area itself. Mobile homes, inexpensive apartments, condos and entry-level, single-family housing can be found in town as well as in the surrounding area. Moderately-priced homes in quiet neighborhoods and luxury custom estates built alongside two nationally-ranked golf courses characterize the range of housing choices in the greater Payson region.
