About Rose Hill

Located about fifteen minutes east of Wichita, Rose Hill offers a quiet, small-town setting with an easy commute into the city. The community earned its name in 1869 when an early settler planted rose gardens across the prairie. Today, with a population of around 4,200 residents, it provides plenty of open space, friendly neighborhoods, and a relaxed pace of life.

For families, daily life is centered around the local Rose Hill school district, where the schools sit conveniently together on a single main campus. Butler Community College also hosts college-credit classes right next to the high school. Between community traditions like the annual Fall Festival, neighborhood parks, and a straightforward drive to Wichita for work and shopping, Rose Hill is a comfortable fit for anyone looking for quiet Kansas living.
