We're talking the difference between a set of continuous suburbs that grew out of the Kansas City, MO metro, and a city with small suburbs that is its own metro.
While both counties are very similar population-wise, you have to take into account the fact that JO, being part of the KC MO metro, is in an area of approximately 2 million versus SG, with the Wichita metro, with approximately 600,000.
IMO - Each area (or county, if you will) has its pros and cons.
EDIT: I find that arguments or comparisons like these often end in frustration and dead ends.
