Phoenix / Nogales
Nogales has 19,841 residents (give or take 21) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US0449640, checked 2026-10-19), about 953 people per square mile.
Nogales is about 167 miles from the Census center point for Phoenix in a straight line and covers 20.82 square miles of land (Census 2024 Gazetteer internal points and land area, https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/gazetteer/2024_Gazetteer/, checked 2026-10-19).
Of the 6,538 occupied homes in Nogales, 47% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 48% with electricity and 2% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US0449640, checked 2026-10-19).
Electricity already heats 48% of Nogales homes, ahead of gas at 47%, and a home on electric baseboard sees the biggest bill change from a heat pump because it replaces resistance heat one for one.
Nogales has about the Santa Cruz County oil share of 0% and 14 points less electric heat than the county's 62% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US04023, checked 2026-10-19).
Nogales has 7,414 housing units, 5% built before 1940 and 56% before 1980, with 17% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US0449640, checked 2026-10-19).
Nogales has 17 points fewer homes built after 2000 than the county's 34% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US04023, checked 2026-10-19).
The median Nogales home was built in 1978 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US0449640, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 5 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US0449640, checked 2026-10-19).
50% of Nogales homes are single-family detached, 16% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 14% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US0449640, checked 2026-10-19).
51% of Nogales homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US0449640, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 50% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.
Nogales has 20 points fewer detached houses than Santa Cruz County overall (70%) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US04023, checked 2026-10-19).
51% of Nogales homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US0449640, checked 2026-10-19), so the market splits between resident-led jobs where the occupant picks the system and landlord-led jobs where they do not, and the rebate paperwork differs.
No electric utility is on file for Nogales on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.
SRP Cool Cash variable-capacity heat pump rebate, run by SRP, is a live program for Arizona addresses and covers qualifying equipment at $1,000 per system (registry row 32 verified 2026-10-14, https://www.srpnet.com/energy-savings-rebates/home/rebates/air-conditioner, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Nogales address before counting it. With 48% of Nogales homes already on electric heat and 49% on gas, oil or propane, the row that applies depends on the name on the electric bill and the fuel coming out.
Efficiency Arizona HEAR (Home Efficiency and Electrification Rebates): $8,000 usd_max (https://efficiencyarizona.com/, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the address.
Median household income in Nogales is $43,214 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US0449640, checked 2026-10-19); many state and utility heat pump rebate programs set higher incentive tiers for income-qualifying households, so the household income on the application, not the town median, decides which level applies.
Heating design temperature: 19F.

That 19F figure is the Santa Cruz County cold-day number a Nogales heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 19F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Nogales home has 5 rooms and was built around 1978, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
