Market Snapshot
Redfin’s late-2025 data puts White Plains’ median sale price at $730,000, up 12.3% year-over-year. Zillow’s average home value across the city is $694,605, up 3.2% – a smaller but steadier climb. Movoto has shown figures as low as $399,000 in a given month, which reflects the city’s heavy mix of condos and co-ops alongside single-family homes rather than a true price drop. Homes are typically pending in around 35 days.
Schools
White Plains High School holds a 7/10 GreatSchools rating, with a 93% graduation rate. It’s a large, diverse public school system serving a city that’s grown well beyond its small-town roots.
Commute to NYC
White Plains sits on the Metro-North Harlem Line in Zone 4. Peak fare to Grand Central runs about $13.75 one-way ($10.25 off-peak).
Neighborhood Character
White Plains is the Westchester county seat, and it feels like it – downtown high-rises, a busy mall, and a restaurant scene that runs later than most of the county. It’s less village, more small city, with a mix of longtime homeowners and renters filling luxury towers near the train station.
