Recognized as one of only 10 All-America Cities, Kansas City is home to friendly people, flower-lined boulevards and some of the best barbecue in the world. Winters tend to be quite chilly with lows in the 20s, yet the rest of the year is mild with summer highs in the upper 80s.
Here, Lincoln Military Housing offers a single community consisting of 77 homes built in 2007, serving all military branches.
The area is filled with much to explore and experience, including such local attractions as the theme parks Worlds of Fun and Oceans of Fun, the Kansas City Zoo, Kansas Speedway and local casinos. In addition, there's Union Station's theater district and the interactive museum Science City, along with great shopping opportunities at Country Club Plaza -- the newly developed Power and Light District in downtown Kansas City -- and the new Legends Shopping Center, featuring an 80-acre Nebraska Furniture Mart.
Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy the Shawnee Mission Park, the largest park in the country; Cave Spring Interpretive Center, a 36-acre nature park on the Santa Fe Trail; and the Children's Peace Pavilion together with weekend excursions to City Market, the largest farmers' market in the Midwest.
