Centered on downtown Lawrence, 66044 blends historic Old West and East Lawrence with the urban energy of Massachusetts Street’s indie shops, Free State Brewing Co., coffee spots like La Prima Tazza and Decade, and live‑music stages at Liberty Hall and The Granada, with the University of Kansas close by. The Kansas River frames the area with Burcham Park and the levee trail for biking, running, and nature views, while South Park and the Lawrence Farmers’ Market anchor community weekends. Expect four true seasons—warm summers, colorful falls, and breezy springs. Daily needs are close at The Merc Co+op and Dillons, with yoga and fitness studios, galleries, and boutiques in easy walking distance, plus quick access to I‑70 and K‑10. Recent Zillow market trends show a median rent around $1,250, with most listings over the past few months ranging roughly $900–$1,700. The vibe is arts‑forward and community‑minded, with lively dining and nightlife, walkable streets, and pet‑friendly patios and riverfront strolls alongside quieter residential blocks.

Galleries, murals, and cultural venues showcase creativity and artistic talent.
