Whitestown was laid out in 1851 when the railroad was extended to that point. It was named for Albert Smith White, a U.S. Senator from Indiana. The name of the town has at points been noted for being easily perceived as having historical ties to racism in Indiana, despite Albert S. White being known as a leading abolitionist.
The first post office in Whitestown was established in 1853.In the late 2000s, Whitestown annexed 6,500 acres south of the historic downtown district. A master planned, mixed-use development named for U.S. Army officer and Boone County native Anson Mills was established in this area in 2005. The Great Recession adversely impacted the Anson project's original construction schedule, but residential, retail, and commercial growth gained momentum starting in 2011 and continues to this day.
The Anson development now features a large selection of retail, including a Meijer supercenter, a Lowe's home improvement store, and several fashion and lifestyle stores including Burlington, Shoe Dept. Encore, TJ Maxx, Hobby Lobby, and Five Below.From 2010 until current day, Whitestown has been the fastest-growing municipality in Indiana, more than doubling in population between 2010 and 2017.Whitestown is the home of the Little League Central Region headquarters.
