Del Webb - Builder of Active Adult Communities for 55+
Del Webb has an extensive history of creating active adult communities that people flock to. In fact, the company is essentially responsible for creating the active adult phenomenon that has swept the country over the last few decades. Del Webb's Sun City, in Arizona, was not only the first successful active adult community in the country, but is perhaps the most famous. Aside from standard amenities, Sun City provided a lifestyle unique to age-restricted communities of that era. It was community and lifestyle-based and was intended to give residents a sense of belonging. The first Sun City furnished a lifestyle coordinator, restaurants and shops, and a list of clubs and activities residents could join in on. Retirees welcomed this tremendous shift from the more traditional 1950s "retirement community". The rest of one's life was suddenly viewed as having the potential to be the best of one's life. Since then, Sun City communities have popped up across the country. And, Del Webb active adult neighborhoods and communities of all names, shapes and sizes are among the most popular in the U.S. In 2017, Del Webb Communities claimed five spots on the list of top ten active adult communities in the country. Sun City, Hilton Head in Bluffton, South Carolina took the #1 spot.
The Pulte Group
Decades of tweaking and perfecting an already effective formula led to lots of happy homeowners and residents. So, the Pulte Group, one of the top developers in the country, folded Del Webb in as their age-restricted, active adult communities partner. Pulte is fond of saying that Del Webb does much more than build a beautiful home. They also build a place to belong.
