Oddly enough

Wyandotte County Kansas is the county in the state with the highest population density. Really odd considering that it also faces a declining population and Johnson and Sedgwick counties both have much higher populations. Due to the fact that its density is over 1000 a square mile, its considered the only "urban" county in Kansas......lol

Anyway, by the time the next census comes along, both Sedgwick and Johnson counties should be over the "urban" limit and Wyandotte county can be safely back in the "suburban" area.....lol

"Oddly Enough" Kansas City, Kansas is the 169th fastest GROWING city in the US, for cities with populations greater than 100,000. It actually beats Independence, Missouri.

Those are facts that I would have never assciated with KCK. They are all positives! If KCK's reality matched what the metro area's perception was, it would be a complete wasteland! Those last two facts need to be publicized by the administration!

you sure do change your avatar a lot, Dead Man!

Commendable as that may be, there are only about 200 towns over 100,000 in the US.
