Far West Wichita Homes for Rent

Far West Wichita combines a countryside charm with a growing suburban feel, located 12 miles from the city's Old Town entertainment district. The neighborhood features some of Wichita's newest subdivisions, offering large lots and amenities such as private pools and fitness centers. Home styles vary from 1990s brick façade ranches and split levels in the east to contemporary-style dwellings and custom-built country estates in the west. These newer homes often include modern farmhouse architecture and spacious lots. The area is served by the Goddard Public Schools District, with highly rated schools like Apollo Elementary, Discovery Intermediate, Eisenhower Middle, and Eisenhower High. Residents enjoy access to green spaces such as Meadows Park and Swanson Park, which features a 1-mile looped trail through conserved prairie land. Recreational options include disc golf at West Millbrook Park and golfing at Auburn Hills Golf Course. Shopping and dining are convenient with NewMarket Square, the city's largest open-air retail center, and local eateries like Maple Street Pizza Company and Twelve. Although the area is car-dependent, essential services are within a short drive, including Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport and Ascension Via Christi St. Teresa. Far West Wichita's crime rate is lower than the national average, contributing to its appeal as a residential area.
