Here Are The 10 Poorest Counties In Kansas
Is it just me or does it seem like the world around us only focuses on money? Oh, it isn’t just me, you say? Good…I guess. Anyway, I like to believe that there is more to life than just money and that it doesn’t necessarily matter how much of it you have. Case in point: these 10 Kansas counties that might be slightly below others when it comes to finances, but make up for those shortcomings with personality, spirit, and pride. *All statistics are via the 2010 U.S. Census American Community Survey.*
