Abilene is a charming, walkable Flint Hills town with a preserved Old‑West pulse, a compact historic downtown, the Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Center, heritage museums and a scenic short‑line tourist railroad—ideal for multi‑week therapists who want easy weekend outings, coffee shops, trails and community events.
Housing, groceries and local entertainment are affordable and community‑oriented, and if you crave bigger-city options, Salina (≈27 mi), Junction City (≈25 mi) and Manhattan (≈40–45 mi) are all an easy drive for day trips.
