Living in Kansas City

Kansas City is the largest city of the US state of Missouri, and is known as the ‘city of fountains’ due to the fact that there can be found over 200 fountains in the city, the second highest number after Rome. As a large city, it boasts a very well developed metropolitan area and expatriates in Kansas City will be able to enjoy its many cultural offerings, including an established jazz music scene, celebrated at the American Jazz Museum. Expats living in Kansas City will also find that soccer (or football) is a very popular sport in the area, with many of the US’s international soccer team’s games being played at the Sporting Park stadium. For more cultural activities, there’s the National World War I museum as well as many architectural structures and theatres to explore, as well as many restaurants offering different cuisines, including BBQ and steak restaurants which the city is well known for.
