Whitewater, University city in Jefferson and Walworth counties, Wisconsin, United States.
Whitewater spans across 9 square miles, featuring Cravath and Trippe Lakes surrounded by the Kettle Moraine State Forest in southeastern Wisconsin.
The settlement emerged at the intersection of Whitewater Creek and Spring Brook, receiving its name from the white sand deposits in their creek beds.
The University of Wisconsin-Whitewater shapes the community with its 14,000 residents, educational programs, and collegiate sports competitions throughout the year.
The Department of Public Works maintains extensive snow removal operations during winter months when temperatures can drop below negative 37 degrees Fahrenheit.
Indian Mounds Park contains geometric and animal-shaped mounds constructed around 1000 AD, representing early Native American presence in the region.
