Why Live in South Central

South Central, one of Wichita's oldest neighborhoods, offers a blend of historic charm and modern amenities. Located just 2 miles from downtown Wichita, this area features grid-style streets lined with single-family homes, predominantly Craftsman bungalows, along with national-style, American Foursquare, and a few Victorian-era Queen Anne houses. The neighborhood is walkable, with sidewalks facilitating easy errands. South Central has seen growth with new businesses and recreational spots along the Arkansas River. The Lincoln Street Bridge area provides a boat launch for kayaks and canoes, fishing opportunities, and a scenic walking path. The paved Railroad Trailhead connects to Wichita’s 18-mile Redbud Trail, and Lincoln Park offers a playground and splash pad for children. The Wichita City Skatepark, located under the Kellogg Overpass, features some of the deepest skate bowls in the Midwest. For daily needs, residents can visit local shops like Carnicería El Güero and the Midnight Run convenience store, or head to the nearby Walmart Supercenter. Dining options include Kelly’s Family Diner, The Grinder Man, and various Mexican food spots like Taco Shop. Nightlife is available at bars such as The Stop and Doug’s Place. The Kansas Firefighter’s Museum in Lincoln Park and events at the Intrust Bank Arena add to the list of things to do. Students attend Wichita Public Schools, with Wichita East High School being highly rated. The neighborhood is safer than the national average, and residents have access to Ascension Via Christi St. Joseph medical center and Wichita Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport for travel.
