Surprise Real Estate
Tens of thousands of retirees have moved to the Surprise to live in Sun City Grand, an age-restricted resort-like community. Homes, condos and townhouses were built by the property development firm Del Webb.
Surprise is a city located in Maricopa County, Arizona, USA, some 22 miles northwest of Phoenix. Surprise has a population of approximately 90,000, and as such, is one of the fastest growing suburbs in the Phoenix metropolitan area.
In 1937, there were only a few houses and a gas station on the one-mile-square parcel of land when it was subdivided to build inexpensive houses for agricultural workers, Surprise has experienced tremendous growth in the years since, growing from 10,700 in 1995 to what it is today.
Since it opened in 1996, Del Webb's Sun City Grand has become a large contributor to the city's population, which more than quadrupled from 10,187 to about 75,000, according to the city government's website in 2004. (The city's population is now considerably larger than Ludden's hometown, which had a population of 44 in the 2000 United States Census.) With so much new developement being completed, the Arizona city's population is expected to to double in the next decade.
