Area Information
White House, Portland, and Cross Plains
You will probably be impressed with the beautiful, rolling hills and valleys of our countryside, but we think our best assets are our residents. Our community is comprised of civic-minded families, which not only care about our community, but about each other. We are a diverse group; farmers, doctors, workers, and business people, all living and working together to raise our families and enjoy life. We have a very low crime rate and the majority of our families are involved in civic organizations, youth sports, school activities, and programs. We feel you could find no other area where you will be accepted more readily or feel at home more quickly.
