Antelope was the main settlement in the Center Township back in the late 1800s. Many of the railroad workers made their homes here and eventually stayed permanently. Gradually, workers left the area and Antelope became just another small community with little business.
On 28 April 1973, an event took place that changed Antelope forever – it basically was blown away. A large bomb explosion at the Roseville switch yard took care of any buildings that were left in Antelope. What is known as Antelope today mostly began as a planned community in the late 1980s. It consisted of mainly single-family homes and apartments. Due to the relative newness of the neighborhood, most homes are new and the areas well planned out. Antelope received its own postmark and recognition as a community by the county on 1 July 1994.
