[quote=Anonymous]We had family who moved to Kansas City several years ago due to an internal corporate transfer. At first they were not thrilled because they knew nothing about the place but now they love it. After visiting them I do have to agree with the recommendation that KC could be a great choice for people wanting to leave DC and looking for a less rushed place without sacrificing too many amenities. KC has many wonderful older neighborhoods, really, quite impressive ones. Housing costs are reasonable. There's an excellent museum (Nelson Atkins) and the orchestra is quite good and the farmer's market I saw was excellent. The Plaza is lovely, Westport is lovely. I was surprised by the sense that there's a sizeable population of educated, friendly, active people in Kansas City. I would be happy to move to Kansas City if circumstances allowed it, but it's probably also helped that I grew up in a mid-size city and am well aware of how many local cultural, entertainment, dining, education and artistic resources that are available in most mid-size American cities if one just looks for it.
