Why Live in Central Topeka

Central Topeka features a variety of home styles, including bungalows, Cape Cods, and ranch-style houses from the early-to-mid-1900s, typically on leafy lots of less than a quarter-acre. South of Huntoon Street, Tudor-style cottages give some streets a quaint, village-like feel. Larger homes, ranging from 4,000 to 7,000 square feet, often back into Big Shunga Park. The neighborhood is known for its safety, with no tornadoes reported since 1950, and many homes include basements for added security during severe weather. Gage Park, a 160-acre space with a 2-mile fitness trail, century-old carousel, and the Topeka Zoo, is a major attraction. Hughes Park offers an all-accessible playground and 18 pickleball courts, while Shunga Glen Park features a skatepark and hiking trails. Dining options along Gage Boulevard and Sixth Avenue include Spangles, Paisano’s Ristorante, and the iconic Bobo’s Drive In, famous for its apple pie. For more extensive shopping and dining, residents head 4 miles west to the Wannamaker Corridor. Cultural events are plentiful, with performances at the Topeka Civic Theatre and Washburn University’s White Concert Hall. The Topeka Zoo hosts annual events like Boo at the Zoo and Topeka Zoo Lights. Central Topeka is served by highly rated schools, including Topeka High School, known for its gothic architecture and strong college prep programs. The neighborhood is well-connected, with public buses and major highways like I-470 and I-70 providing easy access to downtown Topeka and beyond.
