About Argonia
Argonia is a small, quiet community in Sumner County with around 450 residents. Located about 45 minutes south of Wichita, it offers a relaxed rural pace, its own local K-12 schools, and a tight-knit neighborhood feel. The town also holds a unique spot in American history: in 1887, voters elected Susanna Madora Salter as the country's first female mayor after opponents placed her on the ballot as a prank. Today, it is an easygoing spot for anyone looking for peaceful small-town living with a proud heritage.
