About Whiteash
Tucked just north of Marion in Williamson County, Whiteash is a quiet community with roots as a turn-of-the-century coal mining town. Originally built around a local mine and railroad line in the early 1900s, the area has since settled into a relaxed rural enclave of fewer than 300 residents. Even though the mine closed long ago and the community dissolved its village government in 2014, Whiteash keeps its historic small-town feel. For anyone considering a move here, it offers a peaceful, open setting with the convenience of Marion’s shopping, dining, and healthcare right down the road.
