Kansas City Reviews
Rating 4.15 out of 5 703 reviews
There's a lot to see, do, and experience in Kansas City, but I believe we're also behind on attracting creativity. The streets are dreadful, the highways are always jammed, side streets have more potholes than pavement anymore, and there seems to be more problems than solutions. Kansas City is slowly opening up to alternative food and drink eateries such as plant-based and breweries! If you like outdoor activities, there's so many trails and hiking opportunities, not to mention our weather doesn't get too cold.
I give Kansas City 4 out of 5 stars based on how I view my city today and expecting improvements in the future!

Kansas City is a wonderful city to live in. It is full of life, adventure and peace. Kansas City has everything you need in a city, from city markets to shopping districts to ethnic restaurants. There is a wide range of opportunities for employment, cheap housing and free transportation. In some of the neighborhoods you can see the most beautiful land and cityscapes. The community is full of artists, farmers, and students all very welcoming and kind. The shopping districts can vary in style from the antique to the most unique to the sought after. The main shopping districts are the power and light, the plaza, Westport and the farmers market. If you are struggling there is opportunity for help at every turn. An example is the farmers market doubles your food stamps, therefore you can get everything you need and then some for the month. The food is fulfilling, delicious and leaves you satisfied. I love Kansas city and wouldn't trade it for anything else.
KCM is one of my favorite cities, this is one the best places to eat at and so I would love to name a few high quality delicious 5 star restaurants that everyone should try when in the area at least once.
