2018 Map of Valley Center

About this map

The Little Arkansas River meanders through the western reaches of this Sedgwick County landscape, defining a suburban and agricultural transition zone just north of Wichita. The area is characterized by a dense network of small local airfields, including High Point Airport, Berwick Airport, and Hidden Valley Airport, reflecting the region's deep-rooted aviation identity. Residential growth is evident in established communities like Valley Center, Park City, and Bel Aire, while numerous smaller settlements such as Sunnydale, Keechi, and Arthur Heights are connected by a precise grid of county roads. Genealogists will find several burial grounds documented across the townships, from the Valley Center Cem in the northwest to Ascension Cem in the east near Bellaire. The drainage of Chisholm Cr and its various forks provides the primary relief in an otherwise level terrain shaped by section-line development.
