The big one inside Anthem
Del Webb opened Sun City Anthem in 1998, and it grew into one of the valley's best-known 55+ addresses. The community is famous for engagement: three recreation centers, hundreds of resident clubs and a full activities calendar.
It is also simply large. Roughly 7,200 homes means the community carries its own rhythm, and activity levels vary by neighborhood, so the right location inside the community matters as much as the floor plan.
The housing picture
Single-story plans dominate, with villas and attached homes in the mix, ranging from compact lock-and-leave plans to larger homes with room for visitors. Sales today are resale, and condition varies by year and by how previous owners maintained the property.
Three recreation centers and easy golf
Three recreation centers anchor daily life with pools, fitness, crafts and pickleball: Anthem Center, Independence Center and Liberty Center. For golf, the public Revere Golf Club, a 36-hole facility with the Lexington and Concord courses on Hampton Road, sits in the Sun City Anthem area.
Zip 89052 and the Anthem corridor
The community sits in the Clark County district, where the typical Anthem chain runs from Lamping Elementary to Del E. Webb Middle School to Coronado High School, and it is a short drive from Lake Mead and the 215 Beltway. School zoning can change, so verify the current assignment for any address with the Clark County School District before relying on it.
