About Menlo

Menlo is a tiny, peaceful town set against the wide-open farmland of Thomas County in northwest Kansas. Founded in the 1880s as a stop along the railroad, it has become a quiet rural haven where life moves at a relaxed pace. Local kids attend schools in the close-knit Golden Plains district with students from neighboring Rexford and Selden. It offers simple, open-country living with minimal traffic, star-filled night skies, and easy access to nearby hubs like Colby.
