8 registered licensed providers

91st of 278 places in KS
population 2,154
8 licensed providers are registered in Lakin — about 37.1 for every 10,000 residents.
That is roughly 8.5 providers per square mile of land area, or 37.1 per 10,000 residents.
A figure well above the median usually means more choice and shorter waits than most of Kansas — though supply is not the same as availability. Plenty of providers in a well-served area are full, out of network, or private-pay only.
Of the 278 places in Kansas with at least one registered provider, Lakin ranks 91st by count.
The largest single group is social worker, at 6 providers or 75% of the total. Licence titles vary between states for what is often similar training and scope, so the mix here partly reflects how Kansas licenses its providers.
Just over half of the licensed providers here — 75% — hold the same licence, social worker. Where one type dominates like this, the practical question is less which letters someone has than whether they work with what you are bringing to them.
8 is a small enough number that availability, not choice, will decide how quickly you are seen. Licences are issued at state level, so the practical pool is usually wider than this page shows: 11,837 licensed providers are registered across Kansas, and many practices now offer appointments by video. The towns listed further down are the next places to look.
One caveat on reading these numbers: the registry records where a provider registered an address, not where they see clients day to day, and addresses are not always kept current. It also says nothing about whether someone is taking new clients.
