Nestled in Wichita County, Burkburnett combines small-town atmosphere with rich historical heritage. Located just minutes from Sheppard Air Force Base, this city of approximately 11,000 residents offers apartment rentals with average one-bedroom rates around $866 and two-bedrooms for $950, making it a cost-effective option in the Texas rental market.
The city's fascinating history includes its early nickname "Boomtown, U.S.A.," earned during the 1918 oil boom – a period that later inspired the 1940 MGM film "Boom Town." President Theodore Roosevelt named the town after rancher Samuel Burk Burnett following a wolf hunt on Burnett's land, adding a presidential connection to its Texas heritage. Today, Burkburnett operates under a commissioner form of government with its community motto, "You're home now!"
Apartment residents appreciate the easy commute to Wichita Falls, which shares the same metropolitan area. The community features the Burkburnett Independent School District, and experiences North Texas weather patterns with mild winters and warm summers.
