Settled on Florida’s Treasure Coast, White City is named with reference to the display of electric lights on white stucco buildings at the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago designed by architect Daniel Burnham. The neighborhood was founded in the late 1800s by Danish immigrants who came to Florida from the Midwest with the expanding railroad. White City maintains its small-town charm and rural feel while accommodating a short 5-mile commute into downtown Fort Pierce, while also offering a mix of green spaces at White City Park and nearby essentials at Town South Plaza. Locals here enjoy an authentic Floridian lifestyle, boating on St. Lucie River, sunbathing at South Beach Park and supporting local farms at Nelson’s Family Farms. “White City is celebrated for its serene beauty and the warmth of the close-knit community,” says local Heather Price, Broker-Owner at The Price is Right Real Estate, LLC. “The community offers a peaceful respite from the fast-paced lifestyle found in larger cities.”

Traditional ramblers and vibrant coastal homes
White City features a range of housing options from traditional ramblers to multi-level coastal homes with Mediterranean-styles. The community is primarily residential and offers both Single-family homes and condo options ranging from new construction to historic waterfront houses from the early 1900s. With a median sales price of $350,000, price points here can range from the low $200,000s to upwards of seven figures depending on the age, size, and location of the property. For example, a two-bedroom ranch-style fixer-upper costs around $235,000, while a three-bedroom modern ranch-style with a backyard pool and private Indian River access can go for around $1,200,000. Homes neighboring the Indian River often feature private docks and are subject to increased price points. Homes here often feature manicured lawns and are typically fronted with palm trees and tropical flora. “Homebuyers here range from first-time buyers drawn by the affordability to retirees seeking a tranquil setting and families attracted to the area’s safety and excellent schools,” says Price.

Flood risk and transportation around White City
White City is situated next to U.S. Route 1 and provides residents with easy access to downtown Fort Pierce and neighboring areas like River Park and Fort Pierce South. Residents seeking public transit options can take the Area Regional Transit (ART), a fare-free public transit system serving the cities of Fort Pierce. White City riders can start their ride on bus route 1, which operates along U.S. Route 1 and stops throughout the community. For those seeking to travel longer distances, the Treasure Coast International Airport (FPR) is only 10 miles away from White City. White City is at a higher risk of flooding and hurricane damage due to its waterfront location. St. Lucie County implemented the Fort Pierce Shore Protection Project in 2023 to strengthen the shoreline and reduce potential storm damage to residential and commercial areas in the future.
