Fairmont

Fairmont combines a quiet edge-of-town setting with close ties to Manhattan in a way that reflects its position near the confluence of the Kansas and Big Blue rivers at the eastern margin of the Flint Hills. The surrounding region shifts from river lowlands to the rolling tallgrass prairie that defines much of this part of Kansas. Nearby Manhattan is home to Kansas State University, founded in 1863, while its longstanding Aggieville district adds a collegiate and independent-business character to the area. The Flint Hills contain one of North America’s largest remaining expanses of tallgrass prairie.
