The commute is a major draw for residents. White is located about 15–20 minutes northeast of Brookings, offering a fast and easy drive via Highway 30 or Highway 77. This allows you to work at SDSU, Daktronics, or the Brookings hospital while living in a community where the pace is slower and the stars are brighter.
