In fact, Del Webb communities were listed more frequently than any other 55+ builder.
Those that were listed included Sun City Anthem, Sun City Festival, Sun City Shadow Hills, Del Webb Anthem Ranch, Del Webb Stone Creek and Sun City Peachtree, ranging from communities in California to Colorado to Florida.
The neighborhoods that were listed in the "Hall of Fame" for being previously recognized by the magazine were Sun City Hilton Head and Sun City Texas.
