Independence center is the inclosed mall on the Missouri side. It’s in Independence on 39th St

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

You're right! I actually didn't know about that until now!

[@henrylauncelyn7338]

Fantastic video, thank you! KC is my favorite American city.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Thank you so much! The way you phrased that makes it seem like you’re from overseas? Do you live in Kansas City?

[@CollectorAtHeart]

This was a fascinating tour. Leawood Kansas is such a great place. It's fascinating knowing the history of Hallbrook. I remember when it all used to be the Hall family farm. I owned a home in Old Leawood and sold it in 1989 for under 100,000. My parents bought a home when I was born in Prairie Village for 10,000. Wish I had one of those houses now!

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Oh yeah, me too! I wish I had time to stop and walk around Leawood, but sadly I didn't time things well enough. I will do one next year and hopefully time it better!

[@peldridge2627]

Thanks for the marathon tour of the KC area. It was interesting to see how varied the areas are, and great to see points of interest.👍🏻

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

It was a ton of fun! Glad you liked it, thank you for the continued support! I really appreciate it!

[@hakamor1]

This was an awesome watch man. I loved this. Im considering moving to KC.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Awesome! Thanks for watching and commenting! Would you want to hop on a phone call and chat about it sometime?

[@fazelok]

went to Platt City, and Weston like once - for some small store things, or a farmers maerket? idk it was something like that (I live in Gladstone MO) - I did love the old, and tiny lookin buildings lol XD

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Yeah, those are small little charming towns! I haven’t spent too much time in Platte City, but I have in Weston!

[@beep7]

Leawood is KS not MO 😊

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

You’re totally right! My fault, I had a typo when I sent to my editor.

[@AutoDudes]

All the indoor malls closed down in the northland. Antioch mall closed, metro north closed and demolished. I know of independence center (which I’ve heard has gone down hill, shootings, fights etc) and oak park mall, I’ve only been once. Zona took metro north’s business. Legends is the best one around that I like. Zona isn’t nearly as busy as it used to be.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

I actually didn't know about Independence Center until after this video!

[@fazelok]

I went to the KCIA ONCE - for a trip to Chicago in school (for a journalism thing) - I thought it looked okay back then XD - now I gotta go see the new stuff lol XD.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

How long ago? The new KCI is new as of April 23 I believe!

[@fazelok]

it was 2018, so before lol. @@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

You should check it out now! Are you still in school?

[@fazelok]

nah - I work at the Gladstone Walmart - have for over a year now@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong

[@kc2dc444]

Nice video, but it's impossible to show all of KC in one day. It would be nearly impossible to show all of KCMO in one day, let alone the entire metro. KCMO alone has areas you didn't mention like Hyde Park, Coleman Highlands, Union Hill, Beacon Hill, West Bottoms, West Side, South Plaza, Jazz District, Crossroads, Crown Center, Volker, Westport, West 39th, UMKC, Quality Hill, Red Bridge, Swope Park (Zoo, Starlight), I mean I've barely scratched the surface of the metro here. You even missed a lot in the Northland. Briarcliff, Line Creek corridor, Tiffany Springs, Riss Lake. KC is just a big place to put into one video! If I ever moved back to KC, I would live in south plaza or brookside. Those are really the only areas I would consider.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Oh yeah! Totally right. I had a really ambitious video planned and then I started and realized that I could only get to about half of what I wanted. I may do a new one soon and take two days exploring the metro!

[@AutoDudes]

Great job on the video! You should check out WOF, the little ones can get kidz passes for $25 (if not free). Food is pretty expensive though. I grew up in tonganoxie and lived all over the northland. Clay como, Gladstone, liberty, north Kansas City, pleasant valley, and bought a house in Leavenworth/lansing area in 22. It’s a great rental area because of the base. But if I could live anywhere I’d probably pick Kearney Mo.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Nice! How old should the kids be to enjoy WOF? I know that Leavenworth/Lansing is growing like crazy. Would you ever move?

[@elijahwilson1422]

Yes, Louis and Clark came through, because Missouri was included in the Louisiana Purchase.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Yeah, Kaw Point Park is a really cool place!

[@elijahwilson1422]

@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong I'm glad you enjoy living in the Show Me State. It isn't perfect here BUT there are worse and less affordable places to live.

[@elijahwilson1422]

North Kansas City overlaps from Clay County into Jackson County.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

I thought NKC was all in Clay County. Was I wrong? I just looked at a map.

[@fazelok]

I wish I had a lake... in Gladstone XD lol. Smithville lake looks awesome lol XD

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

It does! How long have you been in Gladstone?

[@fazelok]

oh, then i havent explored at all XD - been here for a DECADE (moved in 2014 with family - right in the backyard of Antioch Middle, now down the road right next to the Gladstone Walmart XD lol - no car, so I havent really gone much else besides to and from work lol@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Awesome! We lived right there too! We could walk to the HyVee on 72nd. How do you like it there?

[@fazelok]

Its pretty good - I walk to work at night - so its always quiet then XD - Always busy at Walmart XD - I love the plant life too - i call myself a photographer lol - also on my channel, caught a weird looking UFO or something in the sky lol - crazy looking, right above the Enclave apt!!!@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

@@fazelok Where is that video? I checked out your channel and couldn't find it!

[@josiahdurfee7856]

Such a cool challenge!

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Thanks man! Glad to hear from you again!

[@CloneinOzland]

We moved to the Metro area a couple years ago and ended up in Leavenworth. We have a very affordable Queen Anne home in an historic district and love it. Yes you do have to get permits for improvements, but you can also get State tax credits for them. My husband has an easy commute to Bonner Springs, another very nice small town.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Yup! Leavenworth has exploded in value over the past year. What brought you to the metro?

[@CloneinOzland]

My husband is a pastor in Bonner. We're so glad we ended up here.​@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong

[@CloneinOzland]

My husband is a pastor in Bonner. We're so glad we ended up here. Also appreciate your insights about KC.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Awesome! Which church? We're happy members at Trinity Church in Kansas City. I'm a student at Midwestern Seminary!

[@CloneinOzland]

At First Christian. Is your church a new start up?

[@shelondasaxton5786]

Where is Longview Lake, Lee's Summit-Lake Wood, Lake Winnebago, Lake Lotawana. 18th & Vine Historic District

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

I hit Lee's Summit! For the other locations, I ran out of time.

[@nikkihowell6254]

You forgot to go to 159th Metcalf that is Blue Valley District and ranked best school and growing out here on 167th and towards Louisburg, KS.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Thanks for commenting! I didn't forget! Just ran out of time!

[@onedm1]

Why is Karney growing?

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Kearney is growing because people are finding that it’s the perfect blend of country and city living. That was once Liberty, but Liberty has exploded and it’s no longer the case.

[@elijahwilson1422]

I'm down the road in Excelsior Springs and we are growing as well.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

@@elijahwilson1422 Do you like it there? I've gotten mixed reviews.

@@elijahwilson1422 What do you like the most about it?

[@robertlear2712]

One of my friends in high school had to move because the Smithville lake put his family farm under water.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

That sucks. What happened?

[@mirkopena8740]

Prairie village is in kansas,not Mo

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Yes, it is. That was my fault. I gave my editor the wrong information.

[@cedricraphiel3339]

Interesting 🤔

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Thank you! I hope you enjoyed it!

[@mirkopena8740]

Leawood is kansas

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

You are correct. My fault. The spreadsheet I gave to the editor got messed up.

[@RDas99]

Hope it's not terrible.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Me too. Are you talking about Kansas City, or this video? I hope neither is terrible.

[@RDas99]

Kansas city lol

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

@@RDas99 Yeah, Kansas City isn't terrible! I guess it depends on who you ask.

[@RDas99]

@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong ahh I lived in Madison, WI for awhile. Reminds me of there. Did not end up liking the experience.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

@@RDas99 Madison, Kansas City, or both? what did you not like about here?

[@55leonridgeway]

Kids... You gotta love kids.... No enclosed Malls let's see.... there's Blue Ridge, Bannister, Indian Springs, Antioch, Antioch started out as an open mall then later they enclosed it. Metro North, Metro North was one of the last Malls built in the Kansas City area Kansas City North on Barry road. Plus Independence Center that was offered up to the Royals the other day.... I don't think anybody want to build a Mall anywhere today

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Thanks for commenting! Let's see... Blue Ridge - Closed in 2006 Bannister - Closed in 2007 Indian Springs - Demolished in 2016 Antioch - Lived 3 minutes from there. It was closed when I saw it. Metro North - Drove by the only Macy's that's left today. Independence Center - I missed that one. Are you saying that malls won't work in the metro area because there once were many and they all closed down?

[@beep7]

Yeah malls overall are more successful when not enclosed unless insane destination experience. Been involved in market research on this. Oak Park is the most successful still surviving.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

@@beep7 Apparently I'm just learning about this! I guess the nostalgia of going to enclosed malls is a memory that I can't shake.

[@melaniegreen1311]

I miss Metro North Mall, that was the closest one to me. I think independence center and oak park mall are the only malls left now.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

@@melaniegreen1311 I never saw it! I know that the Macy's is still up, but I've never been in there either. I have been to the T-Shotz that they put up in it's place.

[@deviousuno9778]

Lansing isn't either. He using this to help sell property. He knows noting of metro area

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Here’s the Wikipedia entry for Lansing: Lansing is a city in Leavenworth County, Kansas, United States.[1] It is situated along the west side of the Missouri River and Kansas-Missouri state border. As of the 2020 census, the population of the city was 11,239.[4][5] It is the second most populous city of Leavenworth County and is a part of the Kansas City metropolitan area.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Can you read that last sentence for me? 🙂

[@teegreenburg]

I wouldn’t consider Westin or Plate City the Kansas City metro area.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Well, the people who live there would…

[@teegreenburg]

@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong nobody does

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

​@@teegreenburg Here's the Wikipedia entry for Platte City: "Platte City is a city in and the county seat of Platte County, Missouri within the United States.[4] The population was 4,784 at the 2020 census. The city is part of the Kansas City metropolitan area." You're right about Westin. It's not a part of the metro because it doesn't exist. Weston, Missouri however is part of the metro.

[@deviousuno9778]

That's a lie, Leventhal is not part of Kansas city metro

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Right. No such place as Leventhal, Kansas.

[@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong]

Here’s what Wikipedia says about Leavenworth though: Leavenworth (/ˈlɛvənˌwɜːrθ/) is the county seat and largest city of Leavenworth County, Kansas, United States[1] and is part of the Kansas City metropolitan area.

[@teegreenburg]

A lot of incorrect information in this video.
