Each day during November, we will recognize the 10th anniversary of Menifee 24/7 with a look back at past articles and photos. Here's an interesting conversation we found in the archives about the history of Sun City.

According to former Menifee 24/7 owner Steve Johnson's article from June 13, 2008, discussion on a Menifee radio talk show described Del Webb's original housing development as being an 18-and-over community. It wasn't designated as 55-and-over until 1997, according to the article.
