Wichita is the largest city in Kansas with a population of around 400,000 people. Located on the Arkansas River in central Kansas, the city is southwest of Kansas City and north of Oklahoma City. It’s a lively city with many cultural influences but retains that small town feel despite its size.
Wichita isn’t a large city and is only the biggest because Kansas City is split in two. However, it has a lot going on and is still influential in the aviation industry. It also has the third largest university in the country, Wichita State University which also exerts a cultural and economic influence over the city.
