How do you like the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art?
If you like art, you are pretty lucky having such a good art gallery nearby. The only ones in the country that I have visited that I think are better overall are the Met in NY and the National Gallery in DC. But the Nelson has a better collection of Chinese art than either of those, so if one's specific interests lie in that direction, then you are really in luck. It is a vastly better art gallery than one would expect in a "cow town."
Good restaurants are available in KC, too.
Cost of living is low relative to other large cities.
The weather sucks. Way too hot and humid in the summer, and nasty, icy winters.
Need a car to get around town.

Are you really an insomniac?
Could you share a fond memory with us?
In my spare time I'm an author for Creepypasta.com I wrote the Miss-Fortune series and I have another (better) series in the works currently. I also have a Youtube Channel InsomniacMike486 where I do Let's Plays of video games.
Yes, I have insomnia and battle depression. The depression I've had most of my life, the things I've seen and had to deal with being in a jail environment thickened my skin to daily life problems. You might curse the heavens if you have ever had to change a flat tire in the rain, i'm just glad nobody is throwing blood or feces at me.
My favorite memory is the time I had a kid swallow meth in my intake lobby before anybody could search him. It caused him to have a massive seizure and we had to group tackle him to stop his head from slamming into a wall. I had to be sent out with him in the ambulance. When the EMT cut his shirt off we saw that he had a really crappily done tattoo of the Superman Crest on his chest. When he started coming around and opened his eyes at us I went "Hey Superman. You swallow some Kyrptonite today?" We all shared a laugh. Not him though, he had to be paralyzed and hooked up to a breathing machine.
