Terrible City... - 3/15/2015
Sadly, I agree with most of the negative view on Kansas City; Missouri AND Kansas.... Mia, in her post below,nailed it saying: "People here are really polite but very unfriendly." Couldn't agree more. People are incredibly close minded and have rooted prejudices.Add to that: there are very few coffee shops. You'll find it hard to meet any friendly people. If you have an awesome job offer I'd still say take it, but be prepared for a long and lonely time.

Overall living experience - 3/3/2014
I moved to northwest Kansas City from western Illinois in 2003. What a great place to live!! As I often tell my wife: "If you can't find what you want within 5 minutes of our home, you probably don't need it."
Getting around is easy due the great interstate system which runs through the city. Come join

The Best City in the United States, rejected. - 5/11/2013
Kansas City is not that bad unless you go to the bad parts of it. The only bad parts are the East Side, Kansas City, Kansas, and Independence. The Northland is BEAUTIFUL. If the Northland was it's independent city, I bet it would be on the "Top Best Places to Live List". Also Johnson County, Kansas is very nice too. Kansas City's downtown is actually not dangerous at all, it is one of the safest downtowns, and it is doing much better in crime than it has in the past. The roads aren't that bad here in Kansas City, they are nice, MO-DOT is always doing construction work to make our roads better. The mayor HAS NEVER SAID that he wanted to close the zoo down, and unfriendly people? I don't know what part of Kansas City you come from, but in the Northland, the people couldn't be friendlier, and they are always very kind. There are some bad drivers in Kansas City, but that's just because they are idiots. The Kansas City School District is VERY BAD, but in the Northland, two VERY GREAT

Telecommuted to this place from California for two - 11/13/2012
Have traveled extensively across the majority of the US and this is one of the most provincial cities ever seen. Even Arkansian's laugh at the lack of culture.
The only river city I've seen that doesn't have a river district, the entire river is cordoned off from access by warehouses and train tracks that ensure you'll never sleep restfully, the water here smells putrid when it isn't frozen or hosting venomous mosquitos.
Housing is cheap since wages are lower than the national average, only a handful of large employers and the salaries are as bad as the post Katrina economy of New Orleans.
High murder rate that rivals a city five times as large.
The weather here is the worst of the worst, the stickiest summers and frigid winters, global warming avoided this place.
Schools are so terrible they lost their accreditation and taken over by the state of Missouri. Your high school diploma is only valid if applying to a
