The best Arizona retirement communities, all have great weatherArizona retirement communities offer a wide variety of choices for the retiree who is looking to enjoy the great weather that Arizona affords. After living for 10 years on a sailboat, in foreign countries and full time RVing we decided to find a home for a while...before wanderlust strikes again. We looked at our RV lifestyle as a great way to explore the country before we bought another home. We had sold our Texas home in 1997 before we purchased in Arizona...February 2004. 7 years without a home, one with straight walls and no steering wheel in the living room, we felt was long enough. We found it in Surprise
We are used to people's reaction to where do you live?
We live in Surprise...a Phoenix suburb 30 miles west of downtown. Why we picked ArizonaThe weather...the relatively low cost of housing ( below 100 dollars per square foot on 2004)...the beauty of the surroundings.Arizona is not all desert. There are 2 ski areas in Arizona, one in eastern Arizona and one at Flagstaff. It can be snowing in Flagstaff while we play golf in shorts in Surprise. 
Another sunset from our backyard.With no bugs and low humidity we can eat outdoors for much of the year. We also find that we use the screen doors a lot...keeping the house aired out. Why did we choose Sun City Grand? It has what we enjoy the most. Four good golf courses (average cost per round is $30 for 75 rounds per year.)There are two 25,000 square foot fully equipped fitness centers with indoor and outdoor pools. Sun City Grand, as do many of the best Arizona retirement communities, calls itself an "active retirement community". It has something for all 
If golf, tennis and pickleball seem a bit strenuous...no problem, how about some bocci ball or lawn bowling?On Saturday and other special occaisions the lawn bowlers dress in their proper all white uniforms before venturing out on the well kept lawn bowling courts.

can opt for a stained glass class. Here are some of the crafts local residents have made.
