Market Snapshot
Wichita is the largest city in the state of Kansas and the heart of the state in terms of culture and retail. South Wichita is where the Arkansas River and Wichita Valleycenter Floodway meet. The area is a beautiful place to live with so much to experience.
If you like sports and being outdoors you will love the Pine Bay Golf Course. It has a 9 hole golf course with frequent savings and free or ‘all you can play’ periods on certain days of the week. It also offers the only ‘Foot Golf’ experience in the region. An innovative hybrid of soccer and golf, Foot Golf is a great novel experience to enjoy with family and friends. With discounts for children and seniors, this is a great option for a day out in the fresh air.
With Interstates 135, 235, and 35 all intersecting in South Wichita, this is one of the most accessible parts of the city. There are both elementary schools and high schools in South Wichita, as well as schools in other parts of the area. There is also a Catholic arts university, Newman University, offering both undergraduate and master level courses covering nursing, science, and the arts. With fewer than 20 students in a class, this university provides an intensive, nurturing style of education. The university also hosts a Renaissance Fair where you can enjoy local history and culture.
Planeview Park is another lovely outdoor attraction in South Wichita. Take a stroll through the open green spaces or hire a tennis court or soccer field for some fun with friends. There is also a bike track and a cricket field. Planeview Pack is complete with open shelters with picnic tables, drinking fountains, restrooms, and a children’s play area. It is the perfect place to bring a picnic and enjoy quality family time.
When it comes to eateries, South Wichita has a great selection. If you fancy Italian, Godfather’s Pizza fits the bill. For an all-American experience, you can go to Hog Wild Pit BBQ or Applebee’s for a fun family atmosphere. For something lighter, there is a convenient Souper Salad at the Eastgate Plaza Shopping Center. This is also a great place for all your shopping needs, from clothing and toys, to stationary and gardening. There is a specialist bridal store and a haberdashery here too.
