The town is regressing. The majority of the houses are unkept and getting worse by the year. It’s common to see peeling paint, caved-in roofs, plastic-covered broken windows, broken down vehicles parked in the yard, and garbage strewn everywhere. Low income and high tax rates have ruined what was once a nice town. Not enough people care enough to take real action in this type of town.
Parsons is a community of about 10,000 people. The town is very inviting and friendly. We have many locally owned shops and eating establishments. We are the home of the Parsons Vikings and we have a junior college.. Labette Community College.
Parsons is a fairly small town, but the people that live here are extremely nice and helpful. There are plenty of family-friendly activities to do in Parsons such as; several different parks, Curious Minds, dog parks, walking trails, rec center, and a swimming pool. I believe we have a splash pad coming soon for younger children.
