Topeka crime on the rise
By Syed Shabbir
Since January of 2010, Topeka has seen double the number of murders and rapes compared to the same period last year. Robbery and assault are up nearly 50 percent, and theft, arson and burglary have all gone up.

Proximity to Lawrence.

People are finally waking up and realizing they life in Topeka. I would want to kill a couple people too.

hmmm, I've only seen one person murdered since I moved here. I think they are exaggerating the numbers.

WTF?? (http://www.kiplinger.com/magazine/archives/10-best-cities-2010-for-the-next-decade.html)
10. Topeka, Kan.
In its reserved, midwestern way, Topeka has engineered a prosperity that most cities of similar size would envy. As the capital city of Kansas, nearly 25% of Topeka’s workforce is employed by the government, providing a stable job market where unemployment has stayed around 7%. The city boasts quality schools, friendly people, good hospitals, a university and -- one of its biggest selling points -- low housing costs.
:eek: :eek:

Who wants to live amongst so many govt employees? Haven't they spent anytime at City Hall or the DMV?
Obvious whoever wrote that has never actually been there.
Topeka is a dump with a small oasis of slightly less dumpy areas sprinkled in.

Topeka Official Slogan: "Topeka, not as good as the other big cities in Kansas, but better than any jackass little town west of Salina."

Sounds like false advertising.

Topeka is awesome. Way better than any town in Kansas. Except Manhattan.

I think anyone that has lived in Topeka for longer than a year has a good crime related story, Plz post it here.
-
Topeka is the fat chick at closing time.

One time I saw a 12 year old girl get taken down at a Wal-Mart for shop lifting.
Had a car stereo stolen from my car, I found the stereo down the road a bit. They must have discovered it was an AIWA after they stole it and threw it out the window.

Topeka is the city where I had the barrel of a gun pressed into the back of my head. True story!! :surprised:
-
The real crime here is that, to the rest of the nation, Topeka is KS.
Topeka would cease to exist if it wasn't the capitol.
The only thing Topeka has to offer anyone, other than access to the govt, is bad smells and racing fans. If you like bad smells or racing fans, or if this somehow fits your businesses core needs, then Topeka is where you want to be.
-
Topeka is very fitting to what its name means:
"A good place to dig potatoes"
Seriously.

Are we still talking about this?
