Sun City started construction in the 1960s as a Del Webb community. Del Webb is a group that constructs retirement communities in the Sun Belt. Sun City has a planned street network, but disrupts the secondary street layout of Phoenix. Little has changed for the community in the last 40 years. However, as more retired to the area, Del Webb began construction on Sun City West in the late-1980s and Sun City Grand in the late-1990s.
The community is well known to law students, as it is featured in the case, Spur Industries v. Webb, 494 P.2d 700 (Ariz. 1972), commonly used in first year property law courses to illustrate nuisance law.
