Neighborhood

Approximately 50 miles west of Kansas City, the outer portion of Lawrence, known as West Lawrence, maintains a suburban feel with large, single-family homes, a lot of park space, and quiet streets. Residents still have the convenience of nearby restaurants and shopping, allowing for access to city amenities without big-city traffic.

This part of the city remains an active hub for schools, retail stores, and neighborhood associations. Free State High School anchors the neighborhood, and younger children attend Langston Hughes Elementary School on the west side of Lawrence. There’s quick access to I-70, making a commute anywhere a breeze.
