Oaklawn

Oaklawn straddles the suburban edge east of the Arkansas River valley in south-central Kansas, a position that has shaped it as a residential community within the Wichita metropolitan area. It occupies the broad, level terrain of the Great Plains, where development follows an open road grid and agricultural land remains close by. Wichita lies nearby to the northwest, bringing museums, performing arts and a nationally significant aviation legacy to the area; its aircraft-manufacturing industry earned the city the nickname “Air Capital of the World.” Oaklawn is a census-designated place rather than an incorporated city, giving it a distinctly local scale.
