About Burrton
Burrton is a quiet Harvey County community tucked into the open farm country of south-central Kansas. Founded in the 1870s as a stop along the Santa Fe railroad, the town has held onto its relaxed, down-to-earth roots. It sits right along Highway 50, making it easy to enjoy a calm rural setting while staying well within driving distance of bigger hubs like Hutchinson, Newton, and Wichita.
Daily life here revolves around a friendly, close-knit neighborhood feel where folks genuinely look out for one another. Local families send their kids to the Burrton Unified School District (USD 369), which serves as a natural gathering point for sports games, school programs, and community get-togethers. Between its peaceful streets, affordable living, and easy highway access, Burrton appeals to anyone searching for classic small-town Kansas living with modern conveniences close at hand.
