The University of Kansas is the city’s most obvious feature, and Lawrence is undeniably a college town. As a result, the community has a distinctly cosmopolitan vibe, with a lively academic population, thriving arts and entertainment scene, and strong downtown nightlife.
The music scene in particular has been widely recognized as the best in the region, with national headliners passing through on a regular basis and local artists creating music of every genre. Outdoor attractions abound as well, with Clinton Lake, Lawrence Nature Park, and Kansas Riverfront Park all drawing locals regularly.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
