For all intents and purposes, Kansas City, KS is very much part of the Kansas City, MO community. In some parts of town, you can cross the state line without even knowing it. As a result of this closeness, the two Kansas Cities share many cultural resources: NFL and MLB games, Crossroads Arts District, the American Jazz Museum, and the National WWI Museum and Memorial are all located in Missouri but easily accessible from across the border.
So what’s the benefit of renting an apartment on the Kansas side of the state line? Closer access to a more relaxed, rural lifestyle. On the west end of town, Kansas Speedway hosts NASCAR Sprint Cup races, and the Major League Soccer franchise Sporting Kansas City plays its home games at Children’s Mercy Park (in fact, Kansas City bills itself as the Soccer Capital of America). Minnesota Avenue downtown is known as the “Avenue of Murals,” thanks to the large works of art decorating many of the buildings along this road.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
