I JUST FOUND OUT KANSAS CITY IS NOT LOCATED IN KANSAS STATE
WHAT
THE FUCK
AMERICA EXPLAIN?
well part of it is at least :v
GOOGLE IS TELLING ME IT BELONGS TO MISSOURI
?????
There is also Kansas City, Kansas -the two meet up at the state line – but it’s much smaller than Kansas City, Missouri. Wichita is actually the biggest city in Kansas.
Also, KcK is the worst part of Kansas City. It’s where all the rich white people migrated to because Brownback cut taxes so far down.
So: rich white people, low taxes, and little to no diversity.
The highlights of KcK involve a yarn store, a renfaire, and the best gaming shop I have ever been to.
Uh… Hi. From southeast kc.
Missouri logic oh your from Kansas City, MO friend. Kansas City, KA the devil!!!
That… must be a city services’ nightmare
I mean, a city between states has different laws applying to the same city right? Also who do you pay your taxes? Or who picks up your trash? Idk in a place i used to live there was a town that was being absorbed by another town and i remember they used to have a shitton of problems with postal codes, garbage recollection, water service things, because the municipal gov couldnt agree with what the federal gov wanted, and there were two municipal govs so…
but i digress, IS KANSAS CITY MAN, ISNT IT LOGICAL TO ALL BE IN KANSAS??
WHY WOULD YOU EVEN NAME IT KANSAS CITY AND NOT MAKE IT BE 100% IN KANSAS
Uh, they’re actually 2 completely different cities… the only thing they share is the same name.
That whole area is rife with places named after the Native American peoples who lived in the plains states, like Ioway, Cherokee, Osage, Chillicothe, Shawnee, Wyandotte, Olathe, and Miamis just to name a very few. “Missouri” itself comes from the name of a Native American Tribe. So, the name of the city comes from the Kansa Native American tribe that lived in the area. The Kansas river is also named after them, as the Missouri river is named after the Missouria tribe. The city of Kansas was first settled at the confluence of these two rivers.
(And, FYI, Kansas became a state 40 years after Missouri. :P)
