The Topeka Capital Journal recently had an article that discussed the costs of living in Topeka (Kansas) versus other cities in Kansas and the country.
According to the article a person making $30,000 in Topeka would need these amounts to live in the corresponding cities (ranked cheapest to most expensive).
So looking at cities the size of Topeka or larger, it is actually cheaper to live in Omaha. Maybe I should take a drive straight up US-75 to the city up north to look at relocating. Of course, that won't happen. At least not just for that reason. There is one city that came in cheaper then Omaha (at least for the comparison of the article). That city, Salina, KS, is smaller then Topeka.
It's also important to point out that Manhattan, KS is not only a college town, but also is very close to Fort Riley in Junction City, KS. Topeka is larger then of the Kansas cities listed above, but smaller then any of the out of state cities.
