We spent almost 5 yrs visiting various retirement communities in and around Central FL. I was really interested and excited to visit Sun City because I liked its close proximity to the beach and the fine dining and cultural events you can find in the nearby Tampa. Unfortunately we found the place to be to be sort of depressing. While there was some new housing that was lovely, most areas were much older and some were starting to look pretty run down. Amenities, shopping and restaurants were pretty limited. I don't mean to put down either activity, but DH dubbed it a "bingo and canasta community" rather than an "active lifestyle" community like TV.
