Province is Del Webb’s active adult (55+) master-planned community in Maricopa, AZ — located approximately 30 miles south of central Phoenix on the SR-347 corridor (zip 85139). Developed by Pulte Group under the Del Webb brand, Province is the most recognized active adult developer in America, the same company that built Sun City, Sun City West, and Victory at Verrado. With approximately 2,800–3,200+ homes and ongoing new construction, Province is still growing.
The defining value proposition: Province offers Del Webb quality, brand, and the 55+ lifestyle — including the Copper Sky Recreation Center (47,000 sq ft), a community lake, and an 18-hole golf course — at the lowest price point of any Del Webb active adult community currently building in the Phoenix metro area. Entry prices start at $300K, compared to $400K+ at Victory at Verrado. The Maricopa distance (30 miles from Phoenix) is what makes that price possible.
Province attracts value-conscious 55+ buyers — especially out-of-state relocators from California, the Midwest, and northeast who want the Del Webb brand and Arizona’s warm winters without Scottsdale or East Valley pricing. The community’s social scene is exceptionally active: Copper Sky is busy daily, 60+ resident clubs fill the calendar, and many Province residents rarely feel the need to leave the community for entertainment.
Province’s affordability comes with a real trade-off: approximately 30–35 miles from central Phoenix; 35–45 minutes in normal traffic. For retirees who do not commute daily and whose medical needs and family visits are manageable at that distance, the trade-off works. For buyers who will make frequent Phoenix trips for specialist medical care, family, or daily entertainment, the distance accumulates meaningfully. Province buyers should spend significant time in Maricopa before purchasing to develop a realistic picture of day-to-day life at this distance.
Province’s Copper Sky Recreation Center is the social and recreational heart of the community. At 47,000 square feet, it is a substantial facility with a comprehensive indoor/outdoor amenity package exclusive to Province residents. Copper Sky is busy daily — the programming calendar fills with classes, clubs, events, and social activities year-round.
Year-round indoor lap pool for serious swimmers. Arizona’s warm outdoor months are complemented by year-round indoor swimming for those who prefer lap lanes regardless of weather.
Indoor hydrotherapy and therapy pool. A significant draw for Province residents with joint or mobility considerations — warm water therapy is among the most popular amenities at Province.
Full fitness center with modern cardio and strength equipment, aerobics studio, and dance studio. Group fitness classes organized through the HOA programming calendar.
Ceramics, painting, sewing, and craft rooms with dedicated equipment. Province’s arts scene is an active part of community life — one of the most popular resident club categories.
Large resort-style outdoor pool for warm-weather swimming and socializing. Complemented by a putting green, bocce ball, horseshoes, and outdoor gathering spaces.
Multiple tennis courts plus pickleball courts (the fastest-growing sport in active adult communities nationally). Province’s pickleball community is active and growing rapidly.
Large ballroom and multipurpose rooms for community events, concerts, and social gatherings. Province residents describe the event calendar as genuinely full — something happening weekly.
Billiards tables, card and game rooms, computer lab, and library. The social clubs using these spaces — from poker groups to book clubs to bridge — are among Province’s most active.
Province’s price range reflects both resale inventory and ongoing Del Webb new construction. New construction from Del Webb is available in active building sections; resale homes are available throughout. All sections are 55+ age-restricted.
Smaller floor plans; 2BR; resale in original condition. Entry point to the Del Webb Province lifestyle. Best value for 55+ buyers with tight budget parameters.
2–3 bedroom; updated condition; good lot positions; standard finishes. The most active price band — strong buyer pool from out-of-state 55+ relocators.
3 bedrooms; fully updated or newer construction; lake-adjacent or premium lot position. Best combination of Del Webb quality and Province lifestyle.
Lakefront positions; largest floor plans; best condition; new construction if available from Del Webb. Province’s premium tier — lakefront homes are genuinely distinctive.
* Prices are 2026 estimates. New construction pricing from Del Webb may differ from resale inventory. Contact Ryan for current new construction availability and pricing.
Province is on the SR-347 corridor in Maricopa, approximately 30–35 miles south of central Phoenix. Maricopa has expanded significantly in services since Province opened — grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, and basic retail are available locally — but it is not as full-service as closer-in Phoenix suburbs. For retirees who do not make daily Phoenix trips, the distance is manageable. For those with ongoing Phoenix medical appointments or family visits, the 35–45 minute one-way drive is a real factor to weigh honestly.
| Destination | Approx. Drive | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Chandler (nearest E. Valley) | 30–35 min | SR-347 to I-10 east / Germann Road |
| Phoenix (central) | 35–45 min | SR-347 to I-10 north; longer in rush hour |
| Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport | 40–50 min | SR-347 to I-10 north to airport |
| Dignity Health Mercy Gilbert | 25–35 min | Nearest major hospital, north via SR-347 |
| Banner Casa Grande Regional | ~25 min | South on SR-347 to Casa Grande |
| Chandler Regional Medical Center | 30–35 min | North via SR-347 / I-10 to Chandler |
| Mayo Clinic Scottsdale | 50–55 min | I-10 north to SR-101 to Scottsdale |
| Local Maricopa Groceries / Pharmacy | 5–15 min | Maricopa has expanded local retail significantly |
Province does NOT have an on-site hospital (unlike Sun City West, which has Banner Boswell within the community). The nearest major hospitals are Mercy Gilbert (~25–35 min north) and Banner Casa Grande (~25 min south). Buyers with serious ongoing medical needs, cardiac conditions, or concerns about emergency response time should weigh this carefully. Province is a healthy and active community — but distance to major medical facilities is the honest counter-weight to the affordability advantage, and buyers deserve to know this before purchasing.
Province competes against other Del Webb and established 55+ communities in the Phoenix metro area. The key differentiators are price, location, hospital proximity, and amenity scale.
| Community | Price | Location | Golf | Rec Center | Lake | Hospital | Builder | HOA / Mo |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Province This Community | $300K–$650K | Maricopa (30 mi S) | 1 18-hole | Copper Sky 47K sf | Yes | 25–35 min Factor In | Del Webb (ongoing) | $150–$250 |
| Victory at Verrado | $400K–$850K | Buckeye (W. Valley) | 1 18-hole | Copper Sky 60K sf | No | No hospital nearby Far | Del Webb (ongoing) | $150–$250 |
| Sun City West | $280K–$700K | NW Valley | 8 courses | 7 rec centers | No | Banner Boswell on-site Best | Del Webb (established) | $400–$700 |
| Sun Lakes | $350K–$900K | S. Chandler | 5 courses | 5 village clubs | No | Chandler Reg. 15–20 min Good | Robson (established) | $200–$350 |
Province wins on price and affordability. Sun City West wins on hospital access and golf scale. Sun Lakes wins on hospital proximity and established character. Victory at Verrado is Del Webb’s closest alternative (West Valley; no lake; higher price). The right choice depends on what the buyer weights most.
Buyers who want Del Webb brand quality and the 55+ lifestyle at the lowest Phoenix metro price point. Province’s $300K entry is significantly below other Del Webb options. The Del Webb name carries real meaning in the active adult market — Province delivers it at the most accessible price.
California, Midwest, and northeast transplants with budget sensitivity who need to maximize value. Province lets out-of-state buyers access Del Webb quality, Arizona’s warm winters, and an active adult community lifestyle without East Valley or Scottsdale pricing.
Province makes the most sense for buyers who are fully retired and not making daily Phoenix trips. The 30-mile distance becomes much less relevant when you don’t commute and can time any Phoenix trips outside peak hours.
Province’s golf course is a primary draw for active golfers who want daily access at affordable greens fees. The golf cart community lifestyle — using carts for transportation within Province — is a specific quality of life feature that golf-focused buyers value.
Del Webb is still actively building in Province, offering the appeal of brand-new construction with Del Webb’s current building standards. For buyers who specifically want new construction in a 55+ community at the most affordable price in the Phoenix metro, Province is often the answer.
