        Hoisington, Kansas, the "Gateway to Cheyenne Bottoms", combines a rich history as a railroad town, oil town, and farming community with today's mix of agricultural production and manufacturing.  Hoisington is also home twice a year to the endangered Whooping Cranes as they migrate.

        The Whooping Cranes along with thousands of other bird species spend time at the Cheyenne Bottoms wetlands area whose border comes almost to the edge of Hoisington.

        Hoisington is central to all you desire.  Near the center of the continental United States, Hoisington has access to interstate highways in both directions.  Hoisington is in the center of regional medical complexes within an hour in both directions.

        Hoisington is in the center of a low-cost rural grown labor pool with the mid-west work ethic.  Hoisington is surrounded by two and four year colleges all within an hour's drive.  And Hoisington is the center of a vast hunting and fishing paradise.

        Whether you are looking for a great place to live, work or play; or just stopping by Cheyenne Bottoms to look at the Whooping Cranes and other birds, Hoisington has it.
