The dramatic entryway to the community center at Sun City Aliante.  This Sun City is noted for its low cost heating and cooling and for its no-upkeep, water-wise landscaping.

Sun City Aliante

Sun City Aliante is part of the new Aliante master-planned community in the northern Las Vegas Valley.  There are almost a dozen separate neighborhoods in Aliante, as well as a Sun City.  This area is generally considered to be more affordable than Summerlin or some other neighborhoods in the southern or western parts of the Valley.   

The Nature Discovery Park at Aliante with the enclosed children's play area in the back. This part of Aliante is totally separate from Sun City.

Sun City Aliante offers homes for people age 55+ that range from a 2 bedroom, 1,155 sq. ft.,  home to a 2,105 sq. ft. model with 2 bedrooms and a Library/den. 

These homes were definitely designed with savings in mind.  Desert-style landscaping in the front of the home and back is included on all homes -- which can mean a considerable savings both on the cost of initial plantings and in on-going water-usage.

Additionally, the homes have been designed to reduce annual heating and cooling costs drastically and the costs are guaranteed by the builder, Pulte.   In the Las Vegas Valley, air conditioning bills can be significant--if a home has not been constructed to reduce those costs.  Fortunately these have.

Homes line the lake on the golf course in Sun City Aliante.  All landscaping at Aliante--both around homes and around the common areas--consists of water-wise desert plants.

A large clubhouse offer residents a full range of activities including fitness, swimming, bocce courts, card rooms, computer facilities, tennis, a restaurant and more.  The golf course is relatively flat -- compared to the steep Revere golf course in Sun City Anthem or the Eagles Crest course in Sun City Summerlin.

Sun City Aliante is very close to the 215 Beltway that encircles the Las Vegas Valley and that means access to other parts of the Valley is easier.
