TOP 5 REASONS TO LIVE IN SUN LAKES ARIZONA! 

1) Small Town Atmosphere! Sun Lakes is home to approximately 16000 residents. This active adult community (40+ years old) is beautifully landscaped and very well maintained. It used to be a second home/vacation winter destination for folks wanting to escape the snow, but in recent years there are more and more people living year around. It's a great place to live for young empty nesters! And yes like everywhere else, traffic has increased over the years, but it's still quite common to see people cruising around in golf carts to get to the golf courses and local shopping and banks!

2) Quick and easy access! Sun Lakes is located just 18 miles southeast of Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. Interstate 10 is only a couple miles to the west of Sun Lakes, offering residents easy and quick access to the big city amenities that Chandler, Tempe, Ahwatukee, Scottsdale and Phoenix has to offer. And it's worth it to note that the renowned Chandler Mall at the Loop 101 and San Tan Freeway is just five miles to the north!

3) World Class Golf! Golf enthusiasts will enjoy the five beautifully landscaped 18-hole golf courses, each offering world class resort facilities that include gorgeous upscale clubhouses and recreation centers.

4) Community Amenities! Sun Lakes consists of five main communities called Oakwood, Ironwood, Palo Verde, Cottonwood, and Sun Lakes Phase One. These Sun Lakes communities offer social groups, dancing, health and support groups, swimming, tennis, arts and crafts, dining, walking, bicycling, shopping, and a beautiful new library! Residents can truly enjoy an active, healthy lifestyle!

5) Wide range of housing options! Real Estate in Sun Lakes is diverse and affordable, and offers single family detached residences ranging in price from $150,000 to the $700,000+ range. There is also a spectacular, luxury retirement apartment community called Renaissance, right in the heart of Sun Lakes! Many people don't realize it, but there is also a small section of Sun Lakes - tucked away in the southwest corner - that offers manufactured homes on concrete foundations, and these homes range from around $100,000 to just below $200,000.

The quality of life in Sun Lakes Arizona just can't be beat!
