White River Summary

White River is a small town located in the southwestern corner of South Dakota, in the United States. It is situated in the White River Valley, which is part of the Great Plains region. The town is located in the White River Indian Reservation, which is home to the Oglala Sioux Tribe. The population of White River was 1,093 at the 2010 census.

History

White River was established in 1876 as a trading post for the Oglala Sioux Tribe. The town was named after the nearby White River, which was named by the Sioux for its white-colored sand. The town was incorporated in 1883 and was the first incorporated town in the state of South Dakota.
In the late 19th century, White River was a major stop on the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad. The railroad brought settlers to the area, and the town grew rapidly. By the early 20th century, White River had become a bustling commercial center, with a variety of businesses, including a bank, a hotel, a newspaper, and a variety of stores.
In the early 20th century, White River was also a major center for the cattle industry. The town was home to several large ranches, and the surrounding area was used for grazing. The cattle industry declined in the mid-20th century, and the town's economy shifted to tourism and recreation.
