When developer Del Webb built Sun City in 1960, many people were skeptical about the 20,000 acres of cotton fields and sagebrush turning into a viable, living community.
Today, it is a model for all other retirement communities.
Sun City, which is age-restricted to residents 55 and over, offers more than 350 clubs and civic organizations. The community also includes 1,200 acres of golf courses and seven recreation centers.
