About Student Housing in Manhattan
Manhattan, Kansas anchors the Flint Hills in the northeast corner of the state, and locals call it the Little Apple. Kansas State University and its tens of thousands of Wildcats give the town its pulse, and student life pours from campus into the surrounding streets. The heart of it is Aggieville, a tight grid of shops and venues that's served K-State students for over a century, a short walk from the campus edge. Beyond it, the city stretches toward the Kansas River and rolling prairie, with Tuttle Creek Lake just north for water and trails. City Park near Aggieville hosts festivals and farmers markets, and fall Saturdays send the whole town toward Bill Snyder Family Stadium. It's a college town where campus and city blur at the edges.
