The northland is horrible. I mean, just horrible. It's like a bunch of ozark guys visited JoCo, liked the convenience of everything, decided to replicate it, but then just filled it up with a bunch of ozark ppl. Just horrible.

More stuff for kids to do. Never really fell in love with the Northland (but was willing to stay if necessary).

If the airport was in a normal place I would never have stepped foot in the northland in my entire life

Can we get a couple of things straight here first? A. Briar Cliff is not in the Northland. It's like 3 minutes away from downtown. B. That penguin looks lovely, cf3. Why in the world would you have a problem with that place? I'd still play there! C. Parkville is majestic and the best place to go putt putt.

Its just very far away. You have to cross a river to get there. I meant it felt like Iowa because it was so far away, just like Iowa.
i also would like to consider North Kansas City to be its own thing. like around Armour there are a couple good breweries and Chappell's and whatnot. but actual Kansas City (north), MO is gross
