Designing Healthier Communities Report
This study is part of OC/IE ULI’s 2021 Building Healthy Places Initiative which led to a meeting on “Health, Healing and Affordable Housing”
The Sun City concept was initially developed in the early 1960s to address aging from a new perspective that adults over the age of 55 who are retired, semi-retired, or planning for retirement are interested in actively enjoying those years. The design of Sun City in Menifee was uniquely planned to provide a range of housing types, clustered around two golf courses with an activity center and a commercial town center; and managed by a homeowner’s association not typical of most developments of the era.
The purpose of the Sun City TAP is to recommend solutions for Sun City and the City of Menifee to encourage revitalization of Sun City and Cherry Hills Plaza, and to improve with the surrounding community.
