Del Webb's Sun City Florida is the original Del Webb active-adult community in Florida, opened on December 30, 1961, and now known as Sun City Center in southern Hillsborough County (ZIP 33573). Del Webb developed the community through the early 1970s, and newer active-adult sections have continued to fill in over the decades (sources: Sun City Center Community Association; community history).
Important distinction: the original Del Webb development is the place now called Sun City Center. The nearby community of Sun City is a separate place with its own history. Confirm the ZIP and parcel for any specific home.
Sun City Center is a largely self-contained, golf-cart-friendly 55-plus town with golf courses, clubhouses, pools, fitness, tennis, and an on-site hospital. The original sections are governed by the resident-run Sun City Center Community Association, with low association fees, while newer sub-communities, such as Kings Point and Renaissance, carry their own separate HOA dues. Confirm the fees, any CDD, and golf-cart rules per parcel.
For 55-plus buyers who want an affordable, amenity-rich active-adult town away from the coast, Sun City Center is one of the benchmark Florida choices. The work is reading the specific home and vintage and confirming the association and any sub-community fees.
