If a single word were to succinctly describe Haysville in all its aspects, one could argue that word is “open.” From its homes ringed with open lawn space to its beautiful parks and the open-arms attitude of its residents, this Wichita suburb is meant to be shared.
Homes in this area have some stylistic variety, many of them ranch-style and Craftsmans with distinct low-pitch roofs and brick siding or multiple stories. Ample lawn spaces line their perimeters, driveways and garages that can often accommodate multiple cars. Houses in Haysville can cost from $129,900 for a two-bed/one-bathroom to $430,000 for a five-bed/four-bath.
This area is great for travelers because it has access to Interstate 35, a major Kansas thruway that provides significant mobility. “The commutes here are radically shorter than they are compared to other places. It takes about 25 minutes or so to get where you need to go,” says Ken Bell, library director at Haysville Community Library.
There are several eateries in the area, including Excaret Mexico Bar and Grill and Xin Shun King Cantonese Cuisine. Bionic Burger, a beloved regional chain, serves old-fashioned hamburgers in a classic low-key style. There are also good spots for residents to get caffeine and sugar fixes for the day ahead. Noah’s Donut Shop makes homemade cakes and glazed donuts. Buffalo Brew Coffee Company creates unique drinks and features a drive-thru for residents on the go. Grocery shopping can be done at local market Cash Saver and the community hosts a local farmers market every Saturday from June through August. Haysville also has several thrifting outlets, including the Nifty Thrifty Store.
There are plenty of ways to have fun in the great outdoors. With several parks to choose from, residents can try their hand at disc golf in Riggs Park, play volleyball at Fred Cohlmia Memorial Park or just relax and reflect at Kirby Park. Haysville is also home to several recreational organizations including the Kansas Cricket Association and the Haysville Saddle Club and holds even more rec activities and events at the Haysville Activity Center.
Students in Haysville can attend schools in the Haysville Unified School District. Rex Elementary School and Haysville West Middle School were both given B-minus ratings on Niche. Campus High School was given a B-rating and has won multiple Capturing Kids’ Hearts National Schools awards.
The Haysville Historic District, infamously ravaged by an F4 tornado in 1999, was restored to become what is now Haysville Historic Park. Here is where many community events are often held, such as movie nights, holiday rituals and more. Bell expands on this: “Every year Haysville puts on a big fall festival and a village Christmas celebration. We do lots of smaller events, too. There’s also Living History Rendezvous, where people from as far away from Florida and Minnesota come to reenact authentic nineteenth century living. They camp and perform demonstrations. People learn a lot about that time they might not have known before,” Bell says.
