Neighborhood streets have not been recently paved, but there are some sidewalks. Sunnybrook is made up of "a lot of smaller, well-built brick homes with mature trees,” says Myers. The bungalows and ranch-style homes cost between $140,000 and $200,000. They were built in the mid-1950s and typically contain three small bedrooms. One to three-bedroom apartments go for between $700 and $1,125 per month.

Downtown Wichita events
Art lovers may opt to head downtown for First Friday Gallery Crawls. And every June, Wichita hosts Riverfest, nine days of music, food and fireworks.Quick highway access and walkability
Since all homes in Sunnybrook are less than a mile away from Eastgate Plaza, it's a reasonably bikeable and walkable area. There is one bus stop on East Orme Street in the middle of the neighborhood, and several along East Kellogg Drive and South Rock Road. And Sunnybrook’s location between Kellogg and I-35 makes it a popular choice for commuters driving 6 miles into downtown Wichita. I-35 is shielded by green space, which helps to reduce noise.Eastgate Plaza
Residents get their retail fix at Eastgate Plaza, an outdoor shopping center within the neighborhood and Towne East Square, an indoor, two-story mall across the street. Eastgate Plaza includes popular chains like Ulta Beauty, Dollar Tree and T.J. Maxx. Locals sip on tea from Feng Cha Wichita Boba Tea, chow down on Firehouse Subs and grab groceries from Aldi. In Towne East Square, Scheels combines shopping and entertainment with its selection of sporting goods plus its signature aquarium and Ferris wheel. Round1 Bowling & Amusement and BD’s Mongolian Grill provide more fun settings to hang out with friends and family.

Important to Know
While most Wichitans use Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport, Sunnydale residents might see and hear aircraft heading to McConnell Air Force Base, Beech Factory Airport or Cessna Aircraft Field. Sunnybrook’s hospital is Via Christi Regional Medical Center—Good Shepherd. It is located right next to DCCCA Wichita, which provides support for community health and wellbeing.

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.
