Why Live in Highland Crest

Highland Crest, locally known as Hi-Crest, is an urban neighborhood situated approximately 3 miles south of downtown Topeka. Originally developed post-World War II to house military personnel from Forbes Field, now Topeka Regional Airport, the area experienced a decline in the 1960s but is now seeing revitalization efforts. The community is tight-knit, with long-term residents like Mack McClendon emphasizing the neighborhood's quiet nature and mutual vigilance. Non-profits such as Habitat for Humanity and SENT Topeka are actively involved in improving the area, offering programs like the Tool Bus and refurbishing homes. Predominantly featuring 1950s side-by-side ranch-style houses, homes in Highland Crest are typically two- to three-bedroom properties with leafy, fenced-in backyards and attached garages. Betty Phillips Park, with its tropical-themed playground and vibrant murals, is a local highlight, along with smaller parks like Betty Dunn Park and Nellie Hogan Park. The neighborhood also provides access to the 38-mile Landon Nature Trail and is close to Lake Shawnee, a popular spot for boating and fishing. Dining options vary by location within the neighborhood, with notable spots like Blind Tiger Brewery & Restaurant and Abigail's Grill & Bar on the south side, and Milk & Honey Coffee Co. and Soul Fire Food Company on the north side. While local schools receive average ratings, the community benefits from Topeka Metro bus routes and proximity to Interstate 70. The nearest commercial airport is Kansas City International Airport, about 74 miles away.
