Sun City Center Assisted Living

South of Tampa, North of Sarasota, and completely self contained, this city in the Sunshine State is a bright and beautiful age-restricted community located just scant miles from an array of white sand beaches on the Gulf Coast. State parks, lakes, and rivers also abound, giving the 20,000 or so local residents even more excuses to pursue the year round, outdoors lifestyle that Florida is famous for. Boasting a selection of retail establishments, grocery stores, and entertainment options all within 12.78 square miles of each other, the only difficulty arises when trying to describe the myriad possibilities that assisted living in Sun City Center has to offer.

Organizations Serving Seniors in Sun City Center

Eighty-three percent of the population in Sun City Center is 65 or older and by intention a common sense citywide blueprint was established for practical senior living. Upon arrival, the Men’s Club provides Medical Alert equipment on a non-profit basis to any resident of Sun City Center who requests it, so that no matter on the golf course or in the kitchen, a Sun City Center assisted living resident will never be far from help. One of only a handful of communities that allows golf carts to be driven on the roadways, it’s simple and safe for the residents to maintain the pride that comes with independent mobility even as they move forward in years.
