re: KC Tourist

KC, just like STL gets a bad rap from folks who it seems haven't ever been there. I live in STL, but have had some great weekends in KC. I think some of it comes from both having fairly high crime rates and both having some very real hoods, but if you stay in the right areas I've always loved both cities. I lived in Denver for 6 years and the thing for me that separates is the weather more than anything. We get the worst of both seasons. A lot of people in Denver/Cali just assume STL is crap despite having no real reason to have any opinion.
