Fairview, KS

Fairview is a quiet town of about 240 people in northeast Kansas, positioned right along Highway 36 in Brown County. Day-to-day life is peaceful and unhurried, with wide-open farmland views and friendly neighbors. While many residents make the short drive to nearby Sabetha or Hiawatha for larger stores, schools, and healthcare, Fairview maintains a solid local foundation of its own. It is home to essential trade services, a long-running weekly newspaper called the Fairview Enterprise, and Curb Roller Manufacturing, a homegrown equipment company with nationwide reach. For newcomers, it offers affordable, low-stress rural living with convenient highway access.
