Avoid Kansas City - 20 Reasons NOT To Move to Kansas City!

[@angelaf5040]

Sorry... Congratulations on your new baby! We live in south Raytown, east of Raytown Rd. Our neighborhood is wonderful but we often hear gunshots from around 87th / Sterling area. We moved here a bit over 2 years ago from a small town and love it! The people we've met have mostly all been friendly and helpful.

[@angelaf5040]

Sorry about the drive by. We were in one before we moved here. Its scary!

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Thanks for your kind comments! The drive-by certainly was really scary. We are hoping that the authorities get involved, especially since we have so many kids here at the moment. Where did you move from?

[@seanjackson5262]

You need to check out Branson MO which is a great getaway spot. It has lakes, shows and resort's. Plenty to do for families and its only 3-4 hours away depending on where you live.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Yup! The next family trip we're going to head down there! I think the kids are too young for Silver Dollar City at the moment.

Midtown mice in Kc have to be caught live with peanut butter in live traps. They know what traps are and immune to many of the poisons. Midtown squirrels wont touch traps

The mail system is horrible, and I've been here for a year by way of Chicago. I don't know why the incoming mail has to always arrive at the K.C. Kansas distribution center. When it does it stays there for a couple of days or leaves then comes back there. One time I had priority mail coming from Chicago arrive in K.C. Kansas then go back to Chicago. 🙄😦🤨

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

I have had the same! I had a package get to KC, go all the way back to the shipper in New Jersey, and the come to me 7 days after it was initially here. 😬

We live about 30 miles south of Kansas City. I never go to the Mo. side of the city for any reason, except for the airport.

Are you in Paola?

First of all, living in LA and hearing about miles of cornfields sounds good to me. Which is why I asked if you can do a farm video in the area. My ex girlfriend’s parents lived in Minnesota and that’s all you saw. Miles of corn. Which was better than miles of homes, traffic and smog. Second, do you blame anyone who moving from Oakland?!

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Yes, I really do want to do a farm video. It's just the time with this being peak homebuying season. I will get to it though.

[@TheDollhouse95]

Arizona has alot of bad drivers too.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

That's true! I'm sure there are poor drivers in every city.

[@55leonridgeway]

You should move..... I hope you find your Utopia

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

We've found it! We love Kansas City.

Dating in Kansas City is extremely difficult. I don't live in kanas city, but it's just an hour away from me. I would consider myself a decent looking guy, make good money, have a house, and quite successful for my age. I have a few dating apps that I can't seem to get any matches or likes. I don't know what it exactly is but it is true.

[@SamDailyShow]

I don't think it's KC... We can see you in your profile pic.

[@ronniecraft4826]

@@SamDailyShow This picture of me was like 5 years ago bro. Just haven’t updated it. At least I can show myself instead of you. Come at me when you have a profile picture of yourself (;

[@SamDailyShow]

@@ronniecraft4826 I don't think there is a single video on my channel that doesn't show my face.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

I find that to be strange. The only reasons that people have postulated to me are that everyone here knows each other from high school. I guess that might be the issue? I find it hard to believe that there are so few single people, but if you're in the dating scene, that must be true.

[@Jeanna123]

If you get a cat, you will never see that mouse again!

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

We had a cat! She was really good eating the mice for sure.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

I don’t think I would do it again though. She didn’t use the litter box towards the end of when we had her and that was annoying.

[@Mike-rd8ul]

Born and raised in KCMO and while I love this city, it honestly is nothing to write home about. It definitely gives that perfect in the middle of not too big or small city, but I can only imagine most ppl who relocate here do so for work or maybe lower cost of living retirement. If you got options to relocate I doubt KC would be high on the list.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Thanks for commenting! Appreciate it!

Okay tell the truth 4 months out of the year you cannot do anything outside 2 months it will be too f****** cold two months it is too f****** hot besides that there's two more months in there that are just barely bearable I've lived here 40 years just trust my judgment

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Sorry, you’re just wrong. It’s too hot for about a week and too cold for about a week.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

It’s the middle of August with a high of 80. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@nickajk1]

@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong no you're wrong I've lived here forty years definitely not one week of cold and one week of hot more like a month and a month

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Is it one month, or two? You said in your first comment it was two…
