The very first veterinary surgeon within Arizona Territory was Dr. Alexander John Chandler. In 1891, he settled on a ranch situated south of Mesa and was studying irrigation engineering. A short time later in the year 1900, he had acquired 73km2 of land or 18,000 acres and started to draw up plans for a town site at the area that was then named Chandler Ranch. On the 17th of May, 1912, the official office of the town site opened. That same year, Chandler High School was also established. The region continued to thrive and by 1913, a town center had become established. The very first golf resort within the state of Arizona, the grand Hotel San Marcos was also featured here.

Intel is a computer chip manufacturer who has had an influential part in the growth of the city. They offer 4 places within the municipal area.
