Living in Topeka, KS

The capital city of Kansas is a great place for renters to call home. Featuring a very low cost of living, miles of mixed-use trails to explore and a friendly community, Topeka is often nicknamed “the biggest small town you have ever lived in.” Renters will appreciate the well-rated public school districts; countless activities offered year-round; and family-friendly attractions, such as the zoo, Gage Park, the children’s museum and the Art District. Plus, the once-rundown downtown area has undergone a significant revival in recent years, and renters can now stroll among the charming boutiques and independent restaurants in town. Nevertheless, no city is perfect. Therefore, it’s strongly recommended that you ensure that the doors to your rental apartment and car are safely locked at night.

Renting in Topeka, KS

Topeka is a dense, suburban community featuring rental properties ranging from smaller rental apartments in high-rise communities closer to downtown to large, detached, single-family homes with sprawling lots in residential neighborhoods, as well as everything in between. Here, you’ll find more property owners than renters. The low cost of housing is an important reason why renters may want to move to Topeka. With rental expenses sitting well below the national average and slightly below the rest of Kansas, renters have more room in their budget to enjoy their new home. Notably, the maximum amount for a security deposit that landlords can request in Kansas depends on whether the rental apartment you’re considering is furnished or unfurnished. Depending on the situation, they may ask renters to pay the equivalent of 1.5 months’ rent (if furnished) or one month’s rent (if unfurnished). Topeka’s landlords must also return the security deposit to renters within 30 days of them moving out.
