From humble beginnings as a trading post in 1821 (see our history), Kansas City has become the largest city in a metropolitan area of 1.8 million people. Kansas City , Mo., is the nation's 36th largest city in population (441,500) and the 13th largest in land area ( 318 square miles). Located near the geographic and populations centers of the nation, it truly is the "Heart of America."

The metro area straddles the Missouri-Kansas state line and includes more than 176 cities and 15 counties. Kansas City , Mo., itself takes in parts of four counties -- Jackson, Platte, Clay and Cass -- not to mention all or part of 15 school districts.

Kansas City boasts more fountains than any other city except Rome and more boulevards than any except Paris. Its 1,769-acre Swope Park is one of the largest urban parks in America . Major sports spectators can enjoy baseball with the Royals, football with the Chiefs, and NASCAR racing at Kansas City’s recently built speedway. However, Kansas City is perhaps best known for its steaks, barbecue and jazz. With more than 60 barbecue restaurants and numerous cookoff competitions, it is arguably the nation's barbecue capital. Kansas City became a hotbed of jazz shortly after World War I in the now-famous area around 18th & Vine. Jazz is undergoing a renaissance here, a factor in the new Kansas City Jazz Museum, a complex that also includes a new Negro Leagues Baseball Museum..

Kansas City is the hometown headquarters of Hallmark Cards, Sprint Corp., Russell Stover Candies, Yellow Corp., H&R Block, Interstate Bakeries, AMC Entertainment, American Century, DST Systems, Ferrellgas Partners, Great Plains Energy, Black and Veatch, Cerner, and numerous other businesses. It is also the headquarters of the Community of Christ, the Nazarene Church, and the Unity School of Christianity.
