Living in Kansas City, MO

Study up on two of Kansas City’s claims to fame — barbecue and jazz. Kansas City barbecue is seasoned with spicy dry rub and served with a thick, sweet sauce. The jazz in KCMO is also spicy, with a treasure trove of jazz clubs, jazz brunches, and a jazz museum.

When it comes time to look for housing in Kansas City, you have many choices. In fact, you have more than 240 neighborhoods to choose from. If you’re a jazz fan, 18th and Vine is where some of the best jazz clubs are located. Brookside was built in the 1920s and is home to parades and festivals. Independence, MO, is perfect for history buffs.

If you’re a foodie, you might want to look at the Kansas City Power and Light District, where you’ll find restaurants serving Kansas City’s signature foods like burnt ends, the charred ends of barbeque slabs. You won’t find cheese slippers in any shoe stores, but rather at local bakeries that stuff various kinds of cheese into organic wheat flour bread.

Walk some of those calories off with a visit to any of the city’s fascinating museums and exhibits. Beyond the jazz museum, you can stop by the big building with the giant shuttlecocks in the front yard (the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art). If you want to get out of town for a day or a weekend, some popular day trips from Kansas City include the Lake of the Ozarks and the college town of Rolla.
