Sun City West
Sun City West opened in 1978 and was the second active adult retirement community built in Arizona by the Del Webb Corporation. Following the success of Sun Cityâthe nationâs very first active adult retirement community, which opened in 1960âSun City West would attract a new generation of retirees looking for larger homes, modern amenities, and a greater variety of activities that redefined what it meant to be a âsenior citizenâ in America.
