Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
You can thank the mayor for the state treating us like their red headed step child KC has received short shrift from Missouri for a long time and over the tenures of many mayors. St Louis has the advantage (at least St Louis County) of being the locus of the metro's wealth where several large corpo...

Re: Affordable Housing
More houses might be placed on the market if there were targeted developments for rental and owner dwellings for seniors. They could take their cash from the sale and buy their new smaller home, so the interest rate issue might not apply to them. Many seniors stay in large family homes. There might...

Re: Affordable Housing
I doubt the number of migrants will have a significant effect on the cost of housing in KC. Factors having a much greater effect are Interest rates, the lack of experienced developers, the lack of construction workers, and the escalating cost of building materials.

Re: NYC Migrants Are Being Welcomed by Kansas City’s Mayor to Fill Jobs
The mayor said on TV yesterday that the migrants must have work permits. The action was taken because local employers have difficulty finding workers to fill positions. He also mentioned large construction projects that needed laborers. Local agencies work with migrants and refugees to find jobs and...
