Task Force Detective

About Us

The City of Warm Springs origins date back to the pioneer days of the 1830s. A neighboring town, Bullochville, was considered to be an extension of Warm Springs and eventually, the two towns were combined to create the quaint community that has become present-day Warm Springs. With a population of nearly 500, Warm Springs is small; yet this tiny town‚ rich with history – attracts more than 300,000 visitors each year. It’s easy to see why Warm Springs is considered “the little city with a lot to offer”.
