Chase, Kansas
Chase is a city in Rice County, Kansas, United States. As of the 2020 census, the population of the city was 396.
For millennia, the land now known as Kansas was inhabited by Native Americans. In 1803, most of modern Kansas was secured by the United States as part of the Louisiana Purchase. In 1854, the Kansas Territory was organized, then in 1861 Kansas became the 34th U.S. state. In 1867, Rice County was founded.
In 1878, Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway and parties from Marion and McPherson counties chartered the Marion and McPherson Railway Company. In 1879, a branch line was built from Florence to McPherson; in 1880 it was extended to Lyons and in 1881 was extended to Ellinwood. The line was leased and operated by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway. The line from Florence to Marion was abandoned in 1968. In 1992, the line from Marion to McPherson was sold to Central Kansas Railway. In 1993, after heavy flood damage, the line from Marion to McPherson was abandoned. The original branch line connected Florence, Marion, Canada, Hillsboro, Lehigh, Canton, Galva, McPherson, Conway, Windom, Little River, Mitchell, Lyons, Chase and Ellinwood.
Chase was laid out in 1880 when the railroad was extended to that point. The city was named after a railroad official. The first post office in Chase was established in 1881.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 0.29 square miles (0.75 km2), all land.
The climate in this area is characterized by hot, humid summers and generally mild to cool winters. According to the Köppen Climate Classification system, Chase has a humid subtropical climate, abbreviated "Cfa" on climate maps.
The 2020 United States census counted 396 people, 167 households, and 97 families in Chase. The population density was 1,424.5 per square mile (550.0/km2). There were 201 housing units at an average density of 723.0 per square mile (279.2/km2). The racial makeup was 83.08% (329) white or European American (79.04% non-Hispanic white), 0.51% (2) black or African-American, 0.51% (2) Native American or Alaska Native, 0.0% (0) Asian, 0.0% (0) Pacific Islander or Native Hawaiian, 6.82% (27) from other races, and 9.09% (36) from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race was 12.63% (50) of the population.
Of the 167 households, 29.3% had children under the age of 18; 37.1% were married couples living together; 26.3% had a female householder with no spouse or partner present. 36.5% of households consisted of individuals and 19.8% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.3 and the average family size was 3.0. The percent of those with a bachelor’s degree or higher was estimated to be 6.3% of the population.
