With potential for future growth and development, this town offers a quiet alternative to the challenges of living in a larger, more congested metropolitan area.
The availability of an excellent school system and the close proximity to larger areas of employment opportunities, along with the serenity of its rural setting makes Bentley an ideal choice for families looking for a new place to call "home" or for businesses wanting to be located where people still take time to enjoy the sunflowers.
Recent street improvements and three new housing subdivisions prove that Bentley has caught the public eye as an attractive place to live.
The City of Bentley recently adopted its first Comprehensive Plan, as well as new subdivision regulations, housing and building codes. Long-range capital improvements include additional street improvements, expansion of the city's wastewater treatment facility, development of a city park and larger ball field, and general city beautification.
It is safe to say that Bentley is over one hundred years old and still growing!
Easy access is available to either of three major highways: the new four-lane expressway of K-96; federal highway U.S. 50; or Interstate 1-135.
