This appears to be nothing more than the eastern portion of Mesa, Arizona. It's not even clear that anyone thinks of it as an area with a name. Things are complicated by the many enclaves within the city limit, several of which are within the eastern area; but I can't find anything that identifies any of these as being "East Mesa".

Redirect to Mesa#Geography which pretty well explains that the western portion of Mesa is known as Mesa while the eastern portion is east Mesa. I don't know what the GNIS location, from 1981, was meant to be. The coords given aren't in the center of present-day east Mesa; they are close to the eastern edge of Mesa and not actually in Mesa but in a county island. Regardless, today the term means Mesa east of Center St. MB 03:17, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Mesa, as it could theoretically be a neighborhood in town or part of the outer limitys that is still considered "Mesa" even if technically that isn't the case. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)}~ 22:32, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
