Sun City Shadow Hills in Indio

Retirees want more than a home. They want a vibrant lifestyle in a community with friendly neighbors, amenities to keep their minds and bodies active - and now, more than ever - superb value. Where to Retire Magazine reveals these home-buying trends and names the communities best at fulfilling retirees’ dreams in its July/August edition, “America’s 100 Best Master-Planned Communities.”

Out of the 100 communities, ten Del Webb communities nationwide received the honors of “America’s Best Master-Planned Communities,” more than any single developer.  Sun City Shadow Hills in Indio was only one of two communities in California to receive the honor. 

"Sun City Shadow Hills is known for its spectacular amenities and desirable location," said Chris Haines, Southern California Division President for Pulte Homes & the Communities of Del Webb. "Just one visit to the community and it's clear why it's on the list as a best place to retire."

According to Hanley Wood Market Intelligence, Sun City Shadow Hills is popular with homebuyers, being the top-selling single-family detached community in Q1 with 71 sales. In comparison, the next closest single family detached community had 34 sales. The sales at Sun City Shadow Hills helped Del Webb dominate the active adult marketplace in Southern California with 42% of the overall market in Q1 and 55% of the market share for large-scale amenity-rich active adult communities.

The editors of Where to Retire evaluated several hundred communities across the nation. Those chosen for the “100 Best” vary in cost, location and the range of lifestyle amenities. The selection contains communities in 29 states, including places beyond the traditional retirement havens. Less than half of the developments (41) are active-adult communities, where residents must meet minimum age requirements, including Sun City Shadow Hills. The other 59 developments are open to residents of all ages.

The “100 Best” selection shows a continuing trend toward active retirement, with communities that have walking and biking trails, golf courses and amenity complexes enhanced with state-of-the-art gyms, spas, classrooms for yoga and Pilates and learning centers to explore subjects from art history to wine appreciation.
