Chandler Heights is a small community in Maricopa County, Arizona, United States. It's known as an unincorporated community. This means it's a place with people living there, but it doesn't have its own local government like a city or town. Instead, it's governed by the county.
Chandler Heights is located about 11 miles southeast of the city of Chandler. It used to have its own special postal code (ZIP code 85227). However, that ZIP code is no longer used. Now, the United States Postal Service delivers mail to Chandler Heights addresses using the "Queen Creek" postal code.
Most of Chandler Heights is planned to become part of the town of Queen Creek in the future. This process is called annexation, where a town expands its borders to include nearby areas. A smaller part of Chandler Heights, west of Recker Road, is planned to join the town of Gilbert.
