What am I thinking...?
Update- 04 Jan 09

Well, had a rough last couple of months with the ole lady. Was browsing on her computer and noticed she was looking for apartments....nowhere near where we've been planning on going. The writing was always on the wall but this is the closer. We haven't spoken in 3 days, but I'm sure when we do it will be the goodbye talk. I will still be coming to KC and look forward to tailgaiting with yall!

I think OP is going to be the place I settle due to the proximity of my school. Twenty-six year old college kid, should be fun!


=========================

I get out of the good ole Army in 2 years and have convinced my wife that we need to move to KC. 1. Who moves to a city due to their love of a football team? 2. What are the decent neigborhoods/surrounding towns?

3. Is it a nice place to live or should I say **** it and go back to South Dakota?

Look forward to all of your insights....

*****Edit*****

Ok, I've made the decision to move to the Kansas City, Kansas area. My wife will arrive there in June '10 and I will be there in November '10. I will be attending Cleveland Chiropractic College and my wife will be working on Ft. Leavenworth for the base Morale Welfare and Recreation department. I need to purchase a place happily in the middle of the two by taking I70(unless you guys know a quicker way). The cities that I see on the map that fit that description are, Lansing, Bonner Springs, Fairmont, Wallula and Basehor with a few others. Are those ok areas? Are there better places around that with traffic reduces travel times? Im trying to keep my wifes travel time down to a max of 30 minutes and mine to 45. (Oh yeah, we have two children 9 and 7 so the schools are important as well.

And yes, I am moving to Kansas City to be close to the Chiefs. I do not know anyone who lives there and have only been there a few times. Fortunately, I can also make a bunch of other things fall into place. The new GI Bill is going to allow me to go to school and pay for my house. Anyway, the wife wants me to bbq some ribs now so who am I to argue.


I appreciate any advice and look forward to becoming a local

>>>>>edit<<<<<

guess im just gonna live in the overland park area...

what is the best 1 bedroom apartment area?????

thanks...

The GI Bill is even better now. I am gonna milk out the 80 grand.... You know that they even pay for housing when you get OUT of the army, just as long as you are in school.

I think im gonna go about 6 months without shaving or a haircut... And I will wear a beer helmet....

like this guy
Ok, I was gonna say it, but declined to to avoid the pile on... but you nailed it. There are many many stupid people in the Army.

Definitely do that. If you choose to live in the KC area jobs, schools and desired amenities/lifestyle will help determine what are is best for you. For us, Olathe made the most sense, but there are plenty of great places to live.

Are you buying a house right away? I live in western Shawnee and getting to Ft. Leavenworth is easy. K-7 is divided four lane all the way there and not real busy.

The Piper area north of Bonner Springs is nice and probably a good compromise.

Since she will be arriving in the summer I will probably have her get a rental with a 1 year lease and then buy a house the following summer.

How long is the drive from Shawnee to Leavenworth and KC?

FWIW, I would try to avoid the K-7 and I-70 interchange, because during rush hours, it is a mess.

There are plenty of good houses for sale in the KCK area, close to the Legends, yet, it's only at least 10 minute drive to Lansing/Leavenworth area, and also not that far off to get on I-435.
