Sun Village

Residents are strongly urged to become evangelical christians.

In no way is anyone "strong urged" or otherwise encouraged to become an evangelical Christian. The overall religious/ethnicity of anyone living here is important only to someone who feels their own narrow view of society should be followed. I have found the people welcoming, and friendly, both the winter visitors and year round residents. You can choose to participate in any number of activities, or not, as you wish. Weekly "blasts" are sent out letting you know of upcoming activities.

I think it is the BEST place to spend the winter. The gated village gives a very safe feeling and it is small enough that is is easy to get to know people. There are so many activities of all types that there is no excuse to be bored unless you have health problems. The Activities Director is super with high quality entertainment with lots of variety. We get some entertainers from Branson, etc. and no ticket is over $20, and many are within walking distance. There is a minimum 3 month lease in the condos so people are there long enough to make friends and get to feel a part of the community.

I am a full-time resident of Sun Village since summer, 2014 and have found the community to be beautiful, active and welcoming. Although the majority of the residents are white, evangelical Christians, I have not felt any pressure from the residents here to conform to their beliefs. I have found the residents overwhelmingly warm and welcoming and feel I could not have found a nicer place to retire.
