live and conduct business! Citizens in Chanute, both corporate and
residential, enjoy the best of life in the heart of Southeast Kansas.
Chanute offers the benefits of life
in the Midwest - quality safe schools, friendly people, low cost of living,
honest hard working people, very little crime and traffic problems, and
clean quiet neighborhoods. However, Chanute is only a short drive from
several large metropolitan areas and their amenities.
The Chanute City Commission is very proud of its businesses and supportive of their efforts, through a wide range of policies, services and incentives. The City of Chanute has developed cooperative and productive economic development partnerships with the Chanute area Chamber of Commerce, Main Street Chanute, Unified School District #413, Neosho County Community College, the business community and others. The purpose of these partnerships is to make Chanute the best place to live and operate a business.
"Chanute’s people, their dedication
and sincerity,
are prime reasons for staying here (Chanute).
Four generations
of the Sunderland family – and,
in some cases, four generations of Chanute families have been involved in making Ash Grove a

together as a family, as neighbors,
to build a business that helps build
our community
and our nation."
