Topeka is the capital of Kansas, but it’s more than just a boring government town. Locals say it’s a “family values” type of place and the city has a lot to offer outdoorsy types. It’s home to Lake Shawnee, which offers swimming, boating, fishing and golfing. There’s also plenty of trails for walking and biking. And though the state government is the largest employer in town, private companies like Frito-Lay and BNSF contribute to a vibrant economy that has a lower unemployment rate than the national average.
Topeka’s popularity is in part because of its affordable housing prices, though even those are going up. Rent on apartments has increased more than 10% since 2021. The median home price is up 11% over 2021. You still may have to downsize when moving to Topeka.
That’s why you should keep self-storage in mind for your Topeka move. With facilities all over town, it’s easy to find a place close to home. And even if you need a larger unit, self-storage is more affordable than you think. If you’re thinking of a move to Topeka, make it easier and cheaper with self-storage.
