Surrounded by the Arkansas River, South City is a modest neighborhood with affordable rental options in every style, including cozy single-family homes and modern apartments. Residents enjoy living close to nature, as many of the rentals in the area are within walking distance of several riverside parks. The Wichita Water Center at Herman Hill Park is great for some family-friendly fun since it houses a museum, an indoor aquarium, a guided nature trail, and educational programs. There are a few restaurants in the neighborhood located along South Hydraulic Avenue and East Pawnee Street serving casual eats like pizza, burgers, and ice cream. The eastern side of South City is dominated by light industry companies and business parks, so some residents enjoy a brief commute to work. Along with affordability, renters are attracted to South City for its excellent location. South City is convenient to the McConnell Air Force Base and Downtown Wichita, which has some of the best dining, shopping, and entertainment options in the city.
