Beaumont rewards those who love big skies, quiet roads, and a front-row seat to the Flint Hills. Tucked in eastern Butler County along US-400, this rural community offers elbow room and easy access to larger hubs like El Dorado, Augusta, and Wichita for shopping, healthcare, and major employers.
Weekends bring a distinctive buzz to town when pilots touch down on the grass airstrip by the storied Beaumont Hotel & RV Park, taxi across the country road, and grab a hearty meal at the hotel restaurant. History lovers appreciate the preserved railroad heritage, highlighted by the state-listed 1875 Frisco water tower, a rare survivor from the steam era and a local landmark. Between scenic drives through rolling pastureland, birding, and stargazing, outdoor time here feels unhurried and restorative.
Families in the area typically look to nearby districts such as Flinthills USD 492 for K–12 education, with small classes, supportive teachers, and active athletics and arts. Older students and career changers benefit from programs at Butler Community College, offering workforce certificates and transfer pathways within an easy commute. Housing leans toward acreage properties, farm and ranch tracts, and rustic cabins, making room for gardens, workshops, and a few head of livestock.
