Sun City is the place to be! My in-laws moved in in November and it is quite a place. Anything and everything you can think of amenity wise...and is only 10-15 minute drive from Ballantyne.
There are clubs for everything. Great pool (was just there this weekend). All yard maintenance taken care of. Beautiful golf course. The only downside is if they are building new, you will be in a "new phase" which aren't finished landscaped yet and you get jealous when you take your golf cart past the "older phases" to the club house.
My parents live in Sun City and love it. I suggested Troon because the original poster asked about South Charlotte specifically -- some of my clients have felt Sun City is a bit too far out for them, though the shopping situation has improved dramatically in the past few years. But I agree, Sun City is a great choice.

I am reviving this thread because I am interested in a retirement home which is closer to urban living than Sun City. Is anyone familiar with Troon at Ballantyne?
Troon at Ballantyne has low-maintenance villas in a quadra-plex arrangement. It also apears to have a lockable gate connecting to the nearby Bi-Lo grocery store. If the gate really works, then Troon is actually walkable to a grocery store. This would be a great arrangement for a senior who cannot drive.
There are similar villa homes in the Park Crossing neighborhood, off Park Road inside of I-485. Is anyone familiair with them?
