Eudora, Kansas
Small town. Friendly people. Very busy squirrels.
Eudora sits where the Wakarusa meets the Kansas River, right between Lawrence and Kansas City. It's friendly, it's historic, and every so often a squirrel reminds us all to keep a flashlight handy.
Why folks love Eudora
A river town with deep roots, an easy commute, and a sense of humor about its furriest residents.
Two rivers, one town
Eudora grew up near where the Wakarusa River flows into the Kansas River. Bring a fishing pole, a kayak, or just a good pair of walking shoes.
Right in the middle
On K-10 between Lawrence and the Kansas City metro. KU and Olathe are each a short drive away, so you get quiet nights with big-city options close by.
Go Cardinals!
Eudora's schools are a point of pride, with strong academics, big-hearted athletics, and a whole town that turns out to cheer on the Cardinals.
History since 1857
Founded by German settlers and named for Eudora Fish, daughter of Shawnee leader Paschal Fish. There are stories on every block.
A town that laughs
When the lights blink, Eudora doesn't grumble. It grins, says "squirrel," and thanks the crews who fix it.
