Drexel Heights is an unincorporated community on Tucson’s southwest side, a mix of older site-built and manufactured homes on relatively flat, low-lying ground near the Santa Cruz River and Brawley Wash drainages. That setting makes monsoon flooding and sheet flow the defining water risk, alongside the plumbing issues common in older homes.
How Drexel Heights homes take on water
Drexel Heights’ low, flat terrain near the Santa Cruz and Brawley Wash drainages means monsoon runoff ponds and spreads rather than draining fast. Manufactured and older site-built homes can take water under and into floors, and aging plumbing adds supply-line and sewer leaks. Standing water here is often contaminated and needs proper handling.
