Shhhh 🤫 dont let missouri feel any better, it deserves the hate. Also im not american but isnt missouri literally the flattest place ever? It doesnt even have mountains even tho its quite large.
As a former Kansan, Missouri is way way better for any urbanist. Their state government allows cities a significantly higher degree of autonomy than on the Kansas side. And they have Branson which even single-handedly would make Missouri better than Kansas.
Didn’t the Missouri side of Kansas City spring up because whoring and drinking and whatnot weren’t allowed in Kansas because of puritans, so the Kansans would cross into Missouri for that?
I believe you’re thinking of West Wichita, Kansas. Formerly Delano, Kansas, though it was never incorporated, thus why it had no local regulation or law enforcement.

During this time, other settlements were developing across the river on the Kansas side in Wyandotte County. Some of these small towns incorporated as Kansas City, Kansas, in 1872. By naming this town after the growing city on the Missouri side of the state line, city leaders in Kansas were able to capitalize on the success of Kansas City, Missouri. It’s also possible that the people in Wyandotte County felt that they had more right to the name “Kansas City” than the people of Missouri had.
When your largest city is called the neighbouring state and your name is literally misery
TBF, Kansas city was named first by 4 years. Also, for the most part, Kansas isn’t really any better than Missouri

Kansas and Missouri are equally shit.
we have the Ozark mountains, but they’ve eroded to large hills.
As a missourian(unfortunately) let me have at least a bit of feel good time.

Branson has Yakov Smirnoff, I think that negates anything good about Missouri.
