Boasting the largest population in Kansas, Kansas City owes its continued success to a recipe for city success that includes a thriving economy, quality schools, an efficient transportation infrastructure and lots of recreational and entertainment opportunities. Comprised of over 150 diverse neighborhoods, Kansas City is home to people from all walks of life.

The impressive Kansas City skyline is surrounded by parks, rivers and charming neighborhoods. The unique highways of the city boast wide, landscaped medians adorned with manicured plants and even fountains. In fact, the city's official nickname the "City of Fountains," points to the exceedingly large volume of fountain installations throughout the city, a number rivaled only by Rome. Adding to Kansas City's urban beauty is its city parks, which include one of America's largest urban parks. Swope Park encompasses nearly 1,800 acres of picnic areas, green open spaces, golf courses, a lake, an amphitheater and even a full service zoo.

The city's streets are lined with shade trees and its tap water was recently appraised to be the cleanest among the 50 biggest cities in the country. Major redevelopment in the city's downtown area is providing even more entertainment for this jazz and BBQ capital city and the numerous neighborhoods are experiencing growth as well as developers and home buyers recognize the ever-growing quality of life in Kansas City.
