Our Community

We believe that there's a place for everyone to get involved in our community, whether you're interested in leading as a board member, helping out on a committee, or just getting to know your neighbors. Taking the time to get invested in where you live allows you to put down roots, serve the community and build lasting friendships with people nearby. If you're not sure where to start, visit our Groups and Clubs page to find activities you can participate in with neighbors who share your interests.

Benefits of Living in a Community

The benefits The Hillcrest residents enjoy most are:

Maintained Property Values. According to the Community Associations Institute, homes in managed communities are often worth 5 percent more than those in traditional communities. Our proximity to College Hill and the burgeoning neighborhood goods and services of the Douglas Design District, make our location an increasingly valuable asset.

Amenities and Services. Our homeowners receive value in return for their choice to invest in The Hillcrest cooperative. The Front Desk checks in our guests, the service area brings groceries and packages to our doors, and all utilities are paid through maintenance fees. The building includes a reservable guest room, an unparalleled view of Wichita from the Sky Room, which can be used for personal gatherings, and an elegant parlor for greeting guests or meeting with friends in the building. 

Sense of Community. Our community is a place to connect in a world that is increasingly disconnected. From casual meetings in the parlor or laundry room to official clubs and organizations throughout the building, our residents find ways to connect. You can choose your own level of involvement.

Security. The Hillcrest maintains 24/7 security for its residents. Those who travel or work erratic hours know their property is protected.
