Lane, KS

united states

Lane is a small Kansas farming community about 45 miles southwest of Kansas City, accessible via US Highway 69 south through Franklin County. The town of 223 residents sits in the rolling prairie hills typical of eastern Kansas. Most visitors arrive on US-69, the main north-south route, while locals make short trips to Ottawa or longer commutes to Kansas City. The original 1870 one-room schoolhouse still stands as a testament to Lane's pioneer roots.
