Forest Hills - 1018

Leavenworth’s 66048 sits on the Missouri River bluffs with big-sky prairie sunsets and four true seasons—warm, humid summers, crisp falls, and occasional snowy winters. The area blends small-town ease with deep history as Kansas’s “First City” alongside neighboring Fort Leavenworth; expect brick-lined downtown blocks, the Frontier Army Museum, community parades, and a Saturday farmers market. Coffee and casual dining spots cluster along Delaware Street, with friendly pubs and the occasional taproom for low‑key nights out. For everyday needs, you’ll find Walmart and Price Chopper, local cafes, gyms like the Riverfront Community Center, and parks such as Leavenworth Landing, Havens Park, and the splashy Wollman Aquatic Center—great for families and pets, with riverfront paths for walkers and bikers. Shopping lines the South 4th Street retail corridor, and commuters use K‑7/US‑73 and K‑92 for quick links across the KC metro and to KCI; the University of Saint Mary adds college‑town energy. Per Zillow Rental Market Trends in recent months, median asking rent runs around $1,200, with many listings roughly $900–$1,600.
