The North Dodge neighborhood is bordered by East Fort Lowell Road on the north and East Glenn Street on the south. The neighborhood is a mix of small, vintage style homes built between the 1930s and 1970s.

Traffic can sometimes congest the area, and pedestrian activities are generally limited to the neighborhood itself. However, residents seeking recreation have access to the 160-acre Gene C. Reid Park. At the park, one can walk, play tennis, or enjoy a game of golf. The David Bell Bike and Walking Path in the urban oasis gives residents ample opportunities to try out their sneakers or spin over the route on their bikes.

Schools in the area include Catalina High School and Salpointe Catholic High School. The nearby Children’s Choice Learning Center is a top-rated childcare facility.

Funds are used to maintain the display and support butterfly conservation. Tucson Botanical Gardens is open daily throughout the year with the exception of holidays.
