 The Geographical Center of the United States (contiguous 48) is located about two miles northwest of Lebanon, Kansas. Take US Highway 281 north 1 mile, and turn west one mile on K-191 to the maker that has been erected at the end of the paved road. The actual center is about a half mile away in the center of a former hog farm. In my opinion the Geographical Center of the United States isn't really worth traveling much farther than those 2 miles to visit, but if you ever find yourself in Lebanon, give it a brief visit.
