City - Topeka

Located along the Kansas River and known for its cheerful tulips, Topeka is a Midwestern gem that combines a busy, bustling downtown -- this is the capital city of Kansas and the seat of Shawnee County, after all -- with the natural beauty of the prairie. Topeka is also a college town, home to Washburn University -- a public university established in 1865.

Founded in 1854, Topeka has long played an important role in US history. It was an important part of the Oregon Trail, with a ferry located in Topeka that helped the travelers cross the river. The Brown v. Board of Education, a court ruling that ended public school segregation in 1954, involved a school in Topeka, and today the Brown v. Board of Education Historic Site features galleries, special exhibits, and tours.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Gross

They did the bait and switch on me when I moved in. Then the apartment I moved into was disgusting and gross. There was so many things wrong with it. They refused to fix. There was always something wrong that never got fixed. There was also water damage on the roof that literally caused the ceiling to rot and start leaking water all over my bedroom furniture and floor. They never cleaned anything.

Property Manager at The Village at Old Town, Responded To This Review

I am sorry you feel that way about us. Surely if you called and put in a service request we would have it taken care of. We work extremely hard here to help make sure our tenants are taken care of. Things happen all the time if you had issues that needed to be addressed we would have done everything to get that resolved. Hope you have a better day!

TV@OT

I have a 2bed 1bath and it has open space. The staff are very friendly and any time there is an issue they are quick to respond. Both Renee and Dana do a very good job informing the tenants of maintance work or pest control ect.

2/2/17
Bed bug infested!

This place is infested with bed bugs and management will charge YOU for exterminating charges! Hallway smells like weed all the time, management changes every month. If you like living around shootings and drugs this is your place. There is a reason they rent so cheaply.

1/20/16
Great Price for amount of space!

I'm a single mom with 2 kids in highschool. It's affordable and quite comfortable!
