History of Sun City Palm Desert

Formerly named Sun City Palm Springs and now know as Sun City Palm Desert (SCPD) this community was built by the legendary Del Webb developer. Construction on SCPD Desert began in 1992 and eventually was completed in 2003, with 5,000+ quality homes. SCPD was conceived to only be comprised exclusively of single-family detached homes. Del Webb was eventually purchased by Pulte Homes making Sun City Palm Desert one of the last true Del Webb communities. Residents of this community now manage all the day-to-day operations, golf course and other contractors via the elected officials of the HOA.
