The History of Bel Aire

Bel Aire is one of the newest cities in Kansas. Formed as an Improvement District of Sedgwick County in 1955, Bel Aire began as a collection of subdivisions. The Pearson and Arthur Heights Additions were the first incorporated into the improvement district followed by Bel Aire Village and Bel Aire Heights in the 1970’s. Growth of Bel Aire has always been driven by a sense of community and independence.

Bel Aire was incorporated as a city on November 26, 1980 following a Kansas Supreme Court decision. The seal of the city exemplifies the sense of community, stating the city was, “Established by the Will of Its Citizens.” Growth through Bel Aire’s early stages remained constant as additional residential housing and businesses located to the city. Bel Aire added nearly 100 homes per year through the 1990’s, moving from a starting population of 100 in 1955 to over 6,700 current residents.

Expansion continues today as new residential homes and businesses continue to locate here. Despite the high number of new residents moving to the city, a strong sense of community and common purpose still resonates within Bel Aire. Our motto, City of the Future with Respect for Its Past rings true today.
