Sun City: costs, housing, and rules
This profile in Sun City, AZ records the age rule as documented 55+ age rule, housing as housing not verified, and HOA $680. The full published wording and every source stay on the profile below.

Fees as of
Every recurring charge is listed separately with its source and the date it was checked. An amount that is not published is shown as not published, never as $0.

Age policy, housing, and daily-use rules
Sun City Home Owners Association (SCHOA) enforces the recorded CC&Rs; Recreation Centers of Sun City (RCSC) is a separate nonprofit that operates the recreation facilities funded by the annual assessment below. A third-party article reports every owner and renter must file a sworn Age Affidavit. This is not an independent HOPA-compliance determination.
