About Carlton

Carlton is a quiet, small-town community in Dickinson County, set along Kansas Highway 4 south of Abilene. Originally established in the late 1800s as a railroad stop, today it offers a peaceful rural setting with wide-open space. Local students attend schools in nearby Chapman (USD 473), and residents enjoy a slower pace of life within an easy drive of everyday shopping, dining, and jobs across the region.
