Sun City West History

Standing the Test of Time

Built by the Del Webb Corporation between 1978 and 1997, Sun City West is a 16,900-home community 2.5 miles west of the original Sun City, Arizona. Sun City West continues to be ranked among the Top 10 active-adult communities in the nation, attracting  homebuyers who want the ideal mix of value and variety.

Built for the Mind, Body & Spirit

With the knowledge the Del Webb Corp. gained on the original community, they were able to design a community that matched the needs for an evolving retirement population. This active adult community includes the perfect mix of amenities and activities that cater to active adults who want to stay physically, mentally and socially active.
