ATLANTA, June 30, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Del Webb communities are among the country's 50
best master planned communities for boomers as selected by Where
to Retire Magazine. Del Webb has
four communities on the list this year, and has been recognized 58
times in the nine years the biennial list has been issued by the
publication.
Where to Retire reveals "The Short List: 50 Best
Master-Planned Communities in the United
States," in its newly released July/August issue.
Del Webb communities on the list
are: Sun City Anthem at Merrill Ranch and Sun City Festival in
Arizona; Stone Creek by
Del Webb in Florida; and Sun City Peachtree by
Del Webb In Georgia.
"We are honored that Del Webb
communities across the nation have been recognized - more times
than any other builder - as the best places to live for boomers,"
said Manish Shrivastava, chief
marketing officer for PulteGroup Inc., parent company of
Del Webb. "Del Webb has built its success on knowledge of
our customers, and delivering unmatched lifestyle and superior
quality homes to still-working and retired boomers."
This year's list includes communities in 16 states that feature
an array of amenities and lifestyle offerings, said Where to
Retire Editor Annette Fuller.
She said the list is unique because it focuses on specific
communities rather than locales and features first-person
testimonials by residents.
"For these retirees, the perks of master-planned living are much
more than the comfortable or inventive housing options, and more
than just a busy day of activities," Fuller said. "By participating
in all that the community has to offer, they are finding
like-minded people, building new lifestyles and establishing
friendships, often with an unexpected ease."
She said Where to Retire editors began gathering and
evaluating information about a year ago on more than 100
communities across the nation. The chosen communities are not
ranked, but rather profiled in alphabetical order by state. Also, a
two-page chart gives a snapshot of all 50 choices and a guide to
their amenities. Visit WhereToRetire.com for more
