In 2023, the Town adopted the Village Center Redevelopment Plan. This plan was a replacement for the Village Center Master Plan completed in 2015. The redevelopment plan offers developers and property owners better opportunity to work with the Town of Carefree to continue the creation of a premier commercial and residential mixed-use, experienced based, small town pedestrian environment.
Carefree’s Village Center is the heart of a forward-thinking community that is also a regional magnet for activity. Entry to the Village Center is distinct and beckons visitors and locals alike to wander and discover new goods, services and entertainment within. A diverse mix of specialty shops, art, and dining opportunities leverage the unique design and natural setting of the Village Center to thrive and prosper. Selected cultural amenities and exceptional annual events showcase the authentic character of the community and attract new residents who choose to live in the Village Center and enjoy the true “Carefree” lifestyle.
