Why Whitecourt?
Welcome to Whitecourt! One of Alberta's Hidden Gems

Affordability Without Compromise
Whitecourt isn’t just where you buy a home - it’s where you build a lifestyle. Located in central Alberta, just two hours from Edmonton, Whitecourt is the perfect balance of small-town connection, big opportunity, and outdoor living. Whether you're raising a family, investing in your future, or looking for a slower pace without sacrificing convenience, Whitecourt delivers.

A Working Town With Strong Roots
Whitecourt offers something that’s becoming rare — room to grow, both personally and professionally. With a strong foundation in industries like trades, energy, and logistics, the local economy supports a range of careers and lifestyles. Whether you're looking to build a career, run your own business, or enjoy the flexibility of remote work with more space to breathe, Whitecourt makes it possible.

Family-Focused and Full of Everyday Essentials
Education
Whitecourt offers public and Catholic school options from kindergarten through high school, including elementary, middle, and secondary schools — all located within town. School bus routes and nearby walking paths make getting to class simple and safe.
Rotary Park
A standout attraction in the region, Rotary Park is a year-round favourite. In summer, it’s packed with tubing runs, splash parks, playgrounds, and picnic areas — a go-to spot for families of all ages. In the winter, it transforms into a snow-covered hill perfect for tobogganing and seasonal events.
Recreation & Wellness
From hockey and figure skating to gymnastics, football, and dance, Whitecourt’s minor sports programs are active and well-supported. The Allan & Jean Millar Centre houses a pool, fitness facilities, walking track, and community classes, giving every age group a place to stay active and engaged.
Health & Daily Services
With a local hospital, dental clinics, optometry, pharmacies, grocery stores, and restaurants — you don’t need to leave town to take care of what matters. Everything your family needs is close by, without the traffic or stress of big-city living.
