There are certainly plenty of amazing small towns in Kansas – it’s one of the best-known aspects of the Sunflower State. These little towns may lack the population and square acreage of our large cities, but if you ask me, they can certainly compete in terms of charm, opportunities for fun, and delicious dining. These towns may feel like something of a step back in time for those of us accustomed to the hustle and bustle of a big city, but they’re perfect for when you’re looking for a quiet escape. The Gypsum Hills region of the state is simply teeming with small towns. The scenic vistas here make for amazing landscapes, and the area has plenty of hospitable small towns that feature fun shops and things to do. One of the best little towns in the Gypsum Hills is Sun City. It’s tucked away in Barber County right along the Medicine Lodge River, and has a population of under 50 people. It also happens to be hiding one of the tastiest restaurants in Kansas: Buster’s Saloon. Check it out:
