Hi all, Military spouse here. Average temperature is around 58°F, so the weather is moderate. With a population of 126K, Topeka is a mid-size city. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The city has invested a lot in new development. Should I be concerned? Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.
