About Bushong

Bushong is a tiny rural community in northern Lyon County, surrounded by the open pastures of the Flint Hills. Founded in the late 1880s as a railroad stop, it is now home to fewer than thirty residents who enjoy a quiet, slow-paced lifestyle. Daily life here revolves around privacy, wide skies, and rural simplicity. For work, shopping, or dining, locals make the short drive to nearby communities like Council Grove and Emporia.
