The city of Newton, the Harvey County seat, offers an ideal small town atmosphere with quiet neighborhoods, good schools and abundant community activities. Located only 20 minutes north of Wichita on I-135, Newton is also within easy access of all the amenities of the metropolitan area. The community is proud of its colorful past. The famous Chisholm Trail leads into Harvey County. The coming of the railroad in the early 1870s brought with it gunslingers, gamblers, cowboys and railroad crews, and Newton came to be known as a bloody and lawless city with tales to rival any wild western town. Today, Western hospitality and rugged pioneer spirit live on in Newton's festivals, historic buildings, museums and antique stores. Harvey County is also home to one of the country's largest Mennonite populations. A modern lifestyle has replaced bonnets, beards and buggies, but today's Mennonites are still known for their friendly hospitality. The Mennonite influence in the area is evident with numerous Mennonite Churches, two colleges, a nationally recognized mental health center, the Mennonite Church USA national headquarters and Mennonite Press, all founded and supported by Mennonites.
