Junction City- A Great Place to Live and Work!
Junction City is a great place to live and work! I have been a part of this community for many years. It is one of the most unique cities in the United States. Located adjacent to Fort Riley, Kansas our community boasts over 30 nationalities providing rich cultural diversity.
USD 475 offers one of the best school systems in the nation. Six of our schools have been honored with Blue Ribbon Awards. The Teachers in our District have been recognized for their dedication, efforts and accomplishments. The Students have made gains on state-wide goals and have received many outstanding awards. This District has earned 105 Standard of Excellence Awards on the 2007 Kansas Assessments. In short, USD 475 has become a Model District. (Check out “Points of Pride USD 475″ for more great accomplishments).
Another great aspect of the Junction City Community is Milford State Lake which not only attracts many tourists to our area, but provides a great place for our citizens to get away to enjoy, fishing, boating, camping, etc. Milford Lake is Kansas’ Largest lake with more than 160 miles of shoreline. Check out Acorns Resort Cabins and RV Campground. This is the newest addition to Milford Lake’s amenities.
One of Junction City’s charming features is the Farmer’s Market on the Eight Street Plaza open Wednesdays and Saturdays during the peak season. I shop here frequently and love the fresh produce.
Junction City Little Theater is another charming aspect of Junction City but more on this later.
