13 Struggles Everyone In Kansas City Can Relate To

Sometimes in Kansas City, the struggles are real. While there is the age-old complaint involving our wacky weather patterns, there are other more pressing struggles we can all relate to. Like explaining to out-of-towners that you didn’t grow up on a farm and then move to the big city. If you’ve ever lived in Kansas City, then you can probably relate to the following struggles:

1. Explaining to visitors that we're mostly Missouri, only a little Kansas.

2. When someone from another state insists you have an accent.

3. When you think it's finally spring, and you suddenly get snow in mid-March.

4. Anytime you're going out of town, you have to worry about hitting deer and wrecking your car.

5. You know just how real the Kansas - Missouri rivalry is.

6. Your ears ringing for days after a Chiefs game.

7. When you're just trying to drive to work, but street construction is like:

8. Trying to pick where to eat with your friends... and you each have 10 different ideas.

10. Should you avoid the mosquitoes or go watch the stunning sunset?

11. Trying to dress yourself in the winter.
