Located just over a mile from Downtown Topeka along the Kansas River, North Topeka East affords its residents full access to cultural, recreational, shopping, and dining experiences. Four universities call Topeka home, so there are abundant apartments available for rent. The wide, tree-lined streets provide opportunities for neighbors to meet up through parades, First Friday art shows, and events such as the ever-popular chocolate festival. Locals enjoy grabbing a gourmet grilled cheese and craft brew at the Wheel Barrel and visiting Bradley’s Corner Café for the best comfort food in town.

Deemed by Golfweek Magazine as the best place to play golf in Kansas, locals enjoy sunny days at the Firekeeper Golf Course. Those in the mood for more exercise take advantage of the paved and natural jogging trails that lie in wait within the local city parks.
