The Feel of the Place
Why People Love Living in White City
White City was founded in 1955 by developer Ken White; the first homes went up on Galena Drive in 1957. It became a township in 2006, a metro township in 2017 and a city in 2024, and residents still guard its small-town feel.
Big Bear Park, a 14.6-acre park with its granite bear, pavilion and tennis courts, is the heart of town, and the lighted White City Canal Trail crosses Dimple Dell on a covered bridge.
Most homes are brick ramblers with basements on mineral- and flower-named streets, mostly without HOAs, minutes from I-15 and the canyons.
