About PORA

What is PORA?

PORA is an acronym for Property Owners Residents Association — one of the leading support organizations for Sun City West residents. We are NOT a regulatory or enforcement agency. We advocate local issues to state government, educate through custom classes, and support the community by providing information, services, and assistance.

What PORA Does

Sun City West is an unincorporated community in Arizona's West Valley. PORA is the quasi-governmental entity that advocates and intervenes on behalf of the community, fostering good relationships with local, state, and federal governments. The Recreation Centers and PORA are separate organizations: PORA's main function is advocacy, while the Recreation Centers concentrate on events and social functions.

Membership

Membership is essential in sustaining our present self-government status and for the continuation of PORA's beneficial programs. Members have access to vendor referral services upon request. A one-year membership is $15 for an individual and $25 for a household. You can enroll in membership at the PORA office.
