WICHITA, KANSAS
Wichita is the most populous city in the U.S. state of Kansas and the county seat of Sedgwick County. As of the 2020 census, the population of the city was 397,532. The Wichita metro area had a population of 647,610 in 2020. It is located in south-central Kansas on the Arkansas River.
Wichita began as a trading post on the Chisholm Trail in the 1860s and was incorporated as a city in 1870. It became a destination for cattle drives traveling north from Texas to Kansas railroads, earning it the nickname "Cowtown". Wyatt Earp served as a police officer in Wichita for around one year before going to Dodge City.
In the 1920s and 1930s, businessmen and aeronautical engineers established aircraft manufacturing companies in Wichita, including Beechcraft, Cessna, and Stearman Aircraft. The city became an aircraft production hub known as "The Air Capital of the World". Textron Aviation, Learjet, Airbus, and Boeing/Spirit AeroSystems continue to operate design and manufacturing facilities in Wichita, and the city remains a major center of the American aircraft industry. Several airports located within the city of Wichita include McConnell Air Force Base, Colonel James Jabara Airport, and Wichita Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport, the largest airport in Kansas.
As an industrial hub, Wichita is a regional center of culture, media, and trade. It hosts several universities, large museums, theaters, parks, shopping centers, and entertainment venues, most notably Intrust Bank Arena and Century II Performing Arts & Convention Center. The city's Old Cowtown Museum maintains historical artifacts and exhibits the city's early history. Wichita State University is the third-largest post-secondary institution in the state.

The only good thing about Wichita is the cost of Living is decent.

[@RoadTourBySlipstream]

Which is offset by the utility monopolies like Evergy and Kansas gas. They have zero competition.

Construction might be completed in 20 years, may be. And the ramp going into downtown from I35 S has been closed Sind end of June 2024, who knows when that’ll open back up, same as westbound ramp going onto Kellogg going north on I35.

If it was in the evening hours of St. Patrick's Day weekend, and you didn't have to work, why would you be walking about in light industrial areas, instead of doing literally anything else?

[@01denese]

Hardly no one gets out and walks. Most have trucks or SUVs. The walks can be in bad condition, and it makes them a trip hazard.

[@JR-gc8el]

You missed a lot of beautiful places in Wichita! College hill, delano, old town, botanica gardens, East borough, chisolm creek, exploration place, keeper of the plains, etc, etc. You show alot of the boring places! You need to re- doo this video with the better version!

[@RoadTourBySlipstream]
