Would seem to make great since from a logistucal standpoint. KC is in the heart of the US. Also, low tax incentives making KC more competitive and business friendly.
And the views of the mountains and ocean are spectacular in KC too. Maybe take JB to six mile cove on 4th of July.... [Reply]
I love KC, and it will always be home to me, but I am 31 and left when I was 25 because it was boring as ****.
Like, unless you are married at 22, it's a terrible, terrible place to live as an unmarried twenty-something.
The only thing that would have kept me aside from family, was BBQ and the sports. For someone who is relocating, none of those three things are worth moving for - their family is probably elsewhere, there's good restaurants in any city, and the Royals, Chiefs, KU, KSU & Mizzou aren't their hometown teams.
If they want the "Overland Park" experience, there's suburbia outside of every major city that can scratch that itch. Again, not to piss on anyone that lives there, but I don't see how in the world they could convince the talent that they need to move to KC.
The one thing KC has over ALL other cities putting in a bid - I-35, I-70, I-49, I-29. We're in the middle of the country with easy access to everywhere, and that saves them money on shipping all their shit all over the country.
thats not what a HQ is about. That's why they have fulfillment centers all over the USA. Totally separate logistic and business needs. [Reply]
