Classic American way of life in East Wichita
A community-focused, picturesque neighborhood outside downtown Wichita, Crown Heights South, makes life into a painting for residents. "It's very Norman Rockwell-ish," says Robin Schraml-Wiggans, a Realtor with Keller Williams Hometown Partners who specializes in selling in this area and used to live in the neighborhood. "A lot of people go out and walk their dogs, and I really love the connections I had with my neighbors." Many neighborhood residents work in Downtown Wichita, and airline companies like Boeing and Spirit have offices in the city. "Wichita is the air capital of the world," says Schraml-Wiggans. McConnell Air Force Base is less than five miles from the neighborhood and is also home to the Kansas Aviation Museum. The Robert J. Dole Department of Veterans Affairs Medical and Regional Office Center is located in the neighborhood, a draw for veterans and those who work in medicine.
