Hey folks, I grew up here but left for a while. With a population of 38,018, Sun City is a smaller city. The unemployment rate is 1.0%, which is pretty low. The suburbs are where most families end up. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. What neighborhoods would you suggest? The suburbs are where most families end up. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.

Bought a house here in 2019 and it exceeded my expectations. Property values have gone about the same since then.
