Garden City, located 75 miles east of the Colorado state line and 200 miles west of Wichita, KS, is the regional hub of western Kansas and the county seat of Finney County. The community combines a small-town spirit with a wide variety of amenities, including several financial institutions, schools, medical facilities, churches, and retail shopping areas. Garden City is home to Lee Richardson Zoo, the largest zoological park in western Kansas, an award-winning pool and municipal golf course, a nationally recognized community college, several parks, and a number of special public events.

With 20 languages spoken in the local school system and a long history of taking in refugees, diversity is at the core of Garden City’s community and makes it a unique place to live, work, and play. The welcoming, tight-knit atmosphere and exposure to a broad range of people and perspectives make it a great environment to raise a family. 

Garden City has a growing, resilient economy based in agribusiness and related industries. In 2017, Garden City began work on a new transload facility, which serves the regional wind energy industry and could be expanded to serve the distribution needs of the regional agribusiness industry.

Industries in and around Garden City offer products and support services such as water well technology, systematic irrigation, box fabrication, metal casting and fabrication, extrusion of plastics and many more. The Garden City area is also rich in natural resources and welcomes both traditional and renewable energy production.
