Whitewater is a small suburb close to Palm Springs
Mount San Jacinto rises to 10,834 feet, visible in the soft distance over Whitewater. “The mountain views are amazing. In the winter, we are surrounded by snow-capped peaks, but out here on the desert floor, we don’t get any snow,” says Fatima Nordquist, a Realtor and long-time local of the Coachella Valley. “Some people move here because of its proximity to Palm Springs and because it has much infrastructure without the high prices of L.A., Orange County or Riverside.” Though just 5 miles from Palm Springs, the area is also home to many families, with schools offering International Baccalaureate and STEM programs.
Relax and recharge in a Whitewater home surrounded by open skies and desert serenity.

Walkable to renovated parks and proximity to golf courses
The city recently joined the Desert Recreation District, bringing more programs to city green spaces. One such is Ocotillo Park, which was renovated in 2023. The park includes a baseball diamond, skate park and plenty of shade ideal for the summer heat. “It’s too hot for walking or biking in the summer,” Nordquist says. “It can hit 100 degrees at night and 110 degrees during the day. You get used to it.” Golf is popular, with the public Outdoor Resort Palm Springs Golf Course just 3 miles away. The Cathedral City Library hosts storytime, painting and meditation community events.
