The Rolling Hills Golf course is to the south, and the El Dorado Country Club is to the west of the Mead Acres community.

Although the Mead Acres area is relatively close to Tucson, it feels like range country at times. Due to the washouts on many roads during the rainy season, many residents feel the need to buy trucks.
