I put together a comprehensive thread about Kansas City that I hope will help people enjoy my hometown as much I as did while living there and still do today. Please feel free to comment and add more info to the thread. (I took all but a couple of these pics).

This page is best viewed when browser is maxed to full screen. Otherwise the photos will be in only one column.



Some basic facts about the Kansas City area
The Kansas City metro area is a bi-state region of 2.1 million people (2.6 million live within one hour of downtown KC due to Lawrence, St Joseph, Warrensburg, etc), so it’s a large, regional area.

The anchor city is Kansas City, MO with just under a half million residents. KCMO has five suburbs with over 100,000 residents. Overland Park, KS, Kansas City, KS, Olathe, KS, Independence, MO and Lee’s Summit, MO.

Kansas City is a major player in transportation, software design, engineering, architecture, advertising and telecommunications and is home to Hallmark Cards, Sprint Nextel, AMC Theaters, H&R Block, American Century Investments, Garmin, Applebee’s, HNTB, Black and Veatch among many more.

Kansas City has two major auto assembly plants (Ford and GM) as well as a Harley Davidson motorcycle assembly plant.

The KC area is one of the nation’s largest federal government centers with over 30,000 federal government employees including a Federal Reserve.

The KC area is the eleventh largest gambling market in the country with five large casinos including the largest casino floor between Vegas and the east coast. (Ameristar).

KC’s Boulevard Brewing Co is the largest specialty brewer in the Midwest and tenth largest in the country.

Kansas City is the first city and currently only city to have Google Fiber

Kansas City is known as the city of Fountains with over 250 fountains across the city

Central Kansas City, Missouri


Areas of Central Kansas City, MO
If you are visiting KC for a day, a weekend or a week, the best place to stay is in the city. The central urban core of KCMO stretches about five miles from the River Market to south of the Country Club Plaza and includes several independent entertainment/business districts. This area is well served by transit, taxi cabs, bike share and is easily walkable. Even if you are in town for a ballgame or other event outside of the central urban corridor, you will enjoy your time in KC more by staying in the central city.

Here are some aerial photos of the central urban corridor of KCMO going from north to south to show how the different areas of urban Kansas City look:

Crossroads


Crown Center

Brookside



Getting around Kansas City
Getting around in the core of the city without a car is actually quite easy, efficient and safe. MAX buses serve most key destinations with frequent service between the River Market and the Plaza while other many Metro bus routes cover the area as well. Central KC has hundreds of cabs that can easily be hailed or found at cab stands throughout the city at hotels, union station, entertainment districts etc. B-cycle is KC’s bike share system. The bike rentals are available at stations throughout the city from the River Market to Crown Center and is currently being expanded into Midtown and the Plaza. All transit buses have bike racks. Streetcars are also coming back to KC and the first line will open Downtown in 2015. Transit to the suburbs, airport and stadiums is lackluster at best, so a car will likely be needed if traveling beyond the urban core.

Top things to do in Kansas City

Barbecue! Kansas City has the best BBQ and it's always the number one thing people ask about. Arthur Bryant’s, Gates, Jack Stack, OK Joes, Smokehouse, Danny Edwards, LC’s, Rosedale, Winslow’s is just the beginning. I think Gates is a must if you can only hit one place. Arthur Bryants original location on KCMO’s east side for authentic urban bbq and Smokestack downtown for a fantastic sit down (casual-upscale) bbq restaurant.

Arthur Bryant’s (best location 17th and Brooklyn, KCMO)


Jack Stack (best location 22nd and Wyandotte, KCMO)


Gates (best location Cleaver Blvd and The Paseo, KCMO)

I posted this thread a couple of years ago, but thought I would update it....
Quote:
I’m starting this thread because I think it will come in handy for people that are interested in moving to KC and want a comprehensive idea of the lay of the land when it comes to schools. This can be a “go-to” thread for questions about metro KC school districts on both sides of the state line. Hopefully people will find this thread via search engines etc.
Here is a map of metro KC’s school districts with a listing of how area high schools are ranked by greatschools.com below it. I updated the rankings from the last time I posted this and made a note if the ranking changes by more than two.

The reading scores map and high school stats can be used as a basic guide, but each district should be looked at more closely as to the actual schools you will be near or the demographics of a specific part of a school district. Some districts may have a wider variety of demographics that might slightly bring down stats, but it doesn’t mean you can’t still get just as good of an education there as any district.

Below is a map of the districts in and near the city of KCMO


Central Kansas City, MO

Kansas City, MO is home to one of the worst urban school district in the county. There is no getting around it. The KCMOSD is simply a mess, but it only covers the very central part of the city. Even though there are some good schools in the district, the district overall has some major issues. The district includes all of the poorest parts of the urban core and those that run the district have run it into the ground because of race and political issues. For the most part, stay away unless you know the schools you will be dealing with are ok. If you want to live in the nicer areas of urban KCMO rather than the suburbs, there are some good public schools as well as many great private schools, many of which are attended by suburban children. Urban KCMO also has many charter schools to choose from. KCMO has some amazing urban areas where many families live and most of those families could easily choose to move to the burbs if they wanted to, but like living in the city. So, please don’t let the KCMO School district keep you from living in the city if that is the lifestyle you enjoy and if you play your cards right, you can take advantage of the good public and charter schools in the central city such as Lincoln Prep.

Inner Suburban

The districts bordering the KCMOSD have more “urban” problems than the outlying districts. Center and Hickman Mills both have some urban baggage and social issues, but nothing that can’t be overcome. Not everybody can afford to live in the Northland or other newer suburbs.

The residents of Independence voted several years ago to absorb many schools that were once in the KCMOSD into the Independence School District including Van Horn High School. So far by most accounts it has been a great success story and the residents and school district of that city should be proud of what they have accomplished.

The Grandview district, which serves the Martin City and Red Bridge areas of KCMO, is a decent district as well, but covers a very wide demographic spectrum so you really need to drill down to the neighborhood to analyze the district. Same with Raytown which serves much of far eastern kcmo, but also serves many suburban areas.

Lee’s Summit and Blue Springs are probably the top two in Jackson County, mostly because they are very large suburban districts that offer a lot to students and the overall demographics are going to be higher.


Northland suburbs

You can also live in the city limits of KC and be in some of the best public school districts in the state. The “Northland”, which is a fast growing area, has many fine districts to choose from. Liberty, Park Hill, NKC and Platte County are all great suburban school districts. The Northland includes Kansas City, North (portion of KCMO that lies north of the river), but it's a suburban area.

Therefore, while Metro KC geography is confusing to many people, one thing to keep in mind is that many districts besides the KCMOSD serve the city of KCMO including many respected suburban districts. Many of these districts are within 10-15 minutes of downtown.

Here is the Northland. Kansas City is the primary city in this growing suburban area, but other cities include Liberty, Gladstone, NKC, Parkville and Riverside.




Johnson County, KS

JoCo has very good schools and is covered well by the large Blue Valley, Shawnee Mission and Olathe school districts. All three are consistently top ranked districts. Blue Valley covers one of the Midwest’s most affluent areas and Shawnee Mission and Olathe cover pretty average suburban areas. JoCo also has the Desoto, Gardner and Spring Hill districts which are more exurban or semi rural, but still very good districts.


Wyandotte County, KS

I don’t know much about districts in WyCo, Maybe some locals can help out with this? I have heard that the KCK district is much better than the KCMO district, but some stats say otherwise. Like the KCMOSD, they too have a very good public high school (Sumner).

I understand I am not proving much information on Kansas side school districts, but I can't find many maps and can't really talk about the districts in detail because I don't know them as well as the MO side. So PLEASE, if you have maps, links or personal info about the KS side or anything else I have posted here, add to the thread.

Very impressive kcmo!

Learned some things I didn't know about. And I've lived here my entire life! Think I'll check on some stuff when I have time this summer.

Thanks again and keep up the good work.

Default The Cons of Kansas City, MO for people moving here

Jobs Cons:


I love Kansas City and I think it's a nice underrated one at that, but it's not a good place for up and comers and education. From my experience trying to get a job in the food industry, the interviewers have been fickle and pay less than other States/Cities. You can apply for mornings and they will interview you for graveyard or night shift. You can apply for a line cook job, but they will interview you for a dishwasher. I had both those things happen to me in one interview before and one or both those things in all the others. Kansas City given so many young people the middle finger to the point they went into business for themselves or move out once money fly they're way. I went to a culinary school where people move out the city once they graduated.

School District Cons:

If you have kids that are in elementary school and not in the KCMO school district, run. I been in the Hickman Mills District and the KCMO school district. Both those district lost their credibility. The Hickman Mills District are racist to people who aren't black or white. When I first moved into the Hickman Mills District, people couldn't tell I was black so I (ME!) and though I was from some Island. Both teachers and students shunned me from any communications. For two months straight teachers and students didn't talk to me and did even wanted to get to know me. What made the silence brake was when teacher asked "what are you" in front of the whole class. I told them I am black and you whole class laughed. After everything was cleared, the class invited me to their reindeer games. The second problem with the Hickman Mills District is how they treat the Spanish speaking community. It shocked me when they threw all the Mexicans and Spaniards in one classroom because in their minds they can't speak English. Since I was friends with some of them, I saw first hand they can including the ones fresh from Mexico. Most know more American history than most people in the Middle School and High School.

If you choose the Kansas City School District, have your money prepare to move out the city once your kid about to enter middle school. Although the District is diverse friendly, they don't have any credibility and will have poor school selections once they graduate elementary.

Housing Cons:

Before you move into a house, always make sure to buy one with a good basement. Kansas City are in the tornado ally, but are not very common in Jackson County. You still don't want to chance that though. The other thing that you should watch out for is if your area of of choice have business or a growing area. Do not move to the Hickman Mills and Troost because they are known for their crimes and is losing business because of it. The house values in those areas are low also because of those two thing.

Buses:

Some KCMO bus schedules could ********* at night and all the KCK Jo buses will ********* over pass 6pm.
