What to know about moving in Wichita

According to data Move.org collected, the cost of movers in Wichita, Kansas depends on the distance of your move, how much stuff you’re moving, the type of belongings (high-value or bulky furniture, for example), and the time of year. The type of  moving services you want or your budget allows also matters:

Some pros to living in Wichita include its suburban family vibes, thriving economy, and good schools. Residents can enjoy recreation like the strong brewery and restaurant scene (locals seem to swear by Doo-Dah Diner) and Sedgwick County Zoo—one of the top zoos in the country. Apparently, it’s also the birthplace of Pizza Hut, according to Visit Wichita.

Some things to be aware of about Wichita and the surrounding area are the higher-than-average chances of tornadoes, the need for a car to get around, the lack of outdoor scenery, and the higher than average crime rates, according to Neighborhoodscout.

It depends on what is important to you, but some of the best parts of Wichita, according to Niche.com, include Sleepy Hollow, College Hill, Courtland, Crown Heights, and Village.

Kansas is called “Tornado Alley” for a reason. Kansas had an annual average of 86 tornadoes per year from 1997 to 2022, according to NOAA’s National Weather Service Storm Prediction Center. Sedgwick County (where Wichita is) had an average of 89 tornadoes per year from 1950 to 2022, which is higher than many other areas in Kansas.
