Give me a call. I would love to help. 626.226.6611.

Thanks for commenting! For winter, I feel like we’ve adapted really well. My theory is that the higher humidity makes colder temperatures more bearable than California. 50F here feels different than 50F in California. Much warmer here in my opinion. Basically, on really cold days, I have multiple layers, starting with long underwear.

You're right! Although, not every family opts for public schools!

@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong The expense of private education .. even with the parochial system is high.

@ Understood, but there are many families that don't mind paying the cost of private education in order to live in the areas they desire. Also, alternatives like homeschool are rising in popularity. I get many parents have to work and that's not an option for them, but those are how people mitigate living elsewhere.

Thanks Jeff! Appreciate you watching my channel!

When did you live here? Did you leave?

@ I didn’t live there but used to visit for work at the Sprint campus in Overlamd park. Loved the plaza and it’s grown much since then and I see the new projects..need to visit again soon

If you would like to know, give me a call! 626.226.6611.

Where do you live in KC?

@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong well I won’t say because there might be some creeps but about five minutes from the international airport and about 15 minutes from Platt city

Yes, I totally agree!

That has been one of the most if not the most popular area for people to relocate to in Kansas City.

What do you mean when you talk about "the decriminalization efforts coming from California?" Are you saying that CA is sending criminals?

I totally get that! I've been around, and I think KC competes with most places.

I totally forgot about Independence Center! Thank you! You're also probably right about Lake Quivira. Not sure where I was when I filmed that, but it was getting late in the day.

Yup! Basehor is a great area to live.

Really? I find that most homes hitting the market in PV are pretty nice. Thanks for sharing!

Appreciate the kind comment! Yes, I forgot Independence Mall. Out of curiosity, why do you think that Leavenworth and Lansing are not part of the KC area? I've had people comment this before.

Platte County is a great area of KC!

Thanks for sharing!

Its not for everyone.

I don’t think Hyde Park is that bad at night. Have plenty of clients that love it there.

Agreed!

It's not everyone's cup of tea.

They can be, depending on how old the windows are. We live in a 100 year old home ourselves, and we have newer windows which makes things easier on our energy bill. I lived in a 1970's build as well as this 1919 old home, and our energy costs are about the same.

Would love to hear your experience! What do you mean?

Thanks for commenting! I guess that "cheap" is relative to where you're coming from! Thanks again.

@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong Back in the 1970s my parents bought a house in Prairie Village Ks for about $25,000.00. Today that house has sat empty for over five years now and it's not on the market but is listed for over $300,000.00 and rent would be over $1,500.00 a month. And to me that's a whole lot of money for a house that's been sitting empty for over five years. How long has the house you showed been sitting empty? I live in Linn County. I've been looking for a house for many years now and there are plenty that go for $200,000 and higher and that's in Miami County Ks. Some are even more than the house you showed of course many are sitting on acres of land too but even in town they can cost more. So that's why I say $595,000 isn't cheap. God bless

@@deborahross9974 Hi Deborah, that house has been empty for 60 days. The owners just moved out. Yes, I work in Miami County, and I frequently travel down there. Are you looking to list that Prairie Village home?

Awesome! I love this area as well. Thank you for commenting!

Thanks for commenting!

Thanks for commenting!

Thanks for commenting!

Yes. Close to things that it isn't safe to walk to.

Hyde Park is tight to drive around. Not all neighborhoods are like that though.

Agreed! I love old Kansas City neighborhoods.

Thanks brother! Best of luck to the Chiefs as the postseason starts. I hope the Chargers can keep up!

Hard to speak in detail in a comment, but I would say this - if you are careful on where you live, you can avoid most of the crime in Kansas City. We live in an area that is continually ranked in the 10 most dangerous neighborhoods in Kansas City, and we have had some experiences that are definitely undesirable. However, we have never felt in immanent danger because we aren't involved in illegal activities. If you would like to chat about it more, feel free to reach out via text or email.

I get it! You're totally right - it is totally about personal taste. If you have a house to sell in KC, I would love to help you.

Thanks man! Hope you're doing well! Where are you at now?

@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong living in Dallas now.

Good to hear brother!

You're totally right. I do like the wood trim on historic homes as well. Where in the metro do you live now?

@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong i’m currently in the Northland.

Nice. If you ever decide to move to Brookside or Waldo, hit me up! I would love to help you.

@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong will do!

I did one about Liberty, but the Independence one is coming soon!

Amazing! Have you lived here your whole life?

Thank you so much. I appreciate the kind message.

Pendleton Heights is getting a lot better than it previously was.

Thanks for commenting! I really appreciate it. Where in the burbs did you move to?

⁠moved to Ray county - we do have our share of crime (no one can escape it completely) here and unfortunately the schools aren’t that great but lots of room to spread out and cost of living is a lot lower. I recommend small town Missouri for anyone who doesn’t mind spending time driving to the city once in a while. @@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong

Nice. Are you closer to the city, more in the rural areas? I was just in Lawson. Didn't realize that Lawson is in both Clay and Ray counties until I was writing a contract.

I saw a home for sale in Paola Ks, which is about 25 miles north of where I live. It was built in 1990 but it looked like it was built in 1890. It has five bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms. Price was $525,000.00 but it was my kind of place. Too expensive for me. There are several homes for sale in Paola Ks which go for over $300,000.00 and were built in the late 1800s to early 1900s. So you see you can find grand homes for sale in many rural areas outside of Kansas City Mo. God bless.

It’s quite amazing how much you can get for your money compared to other areas of the country.

Pendleton Heights is getting a lot better than it previously was.

We lived right down the road from it, but we were members at Emmaus Church in North Kansas City. We never visited the Chinese Church. Are you looking for a church now?

My wife is Chinese, we go there! She came from China at the age of 43 and had never heard of Jesus before. I am thankful that she ran into that community because they are excellent people and have a very biblical foundation! 😊 It is mostly Chinese and Taiwanese and it's in Mandarin but the pastor's wife translates!

That's awesome! I was a Ph.D. student at the seminary down the street - Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Where do most of those congregants live? I only ask because if my mom relocates here, I would love to connect her with a solid church that has services in a language she can understand.

​@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong @LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong all over some are around the Northland plaza Olathe leawood but some come as far as from warrensburg a lot of them are professors lawyers tech it people and some wonderful families

Great to know. About how large is the congregation?

Nice! Do you ever encounter dangerous situations doing that? With the traffic?

​@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong Absolutely people act as if they own the roads. As far as I'm aware, the right of way for pedestrians is only in marked crosswalks

We love the Volker area. Especially Prospero's Used Books!

@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong I have a home a block away from KU med, lived there since 2011 but we moved away last year, definitely a difference in the freedom of being able to go for a walk without having to worry about who is behind you

That's understandable! I think things are changing quickly!

Where are the places you visited as a musician?

​@@LivingInKansasCity-JaylennWong most of the country multiple times! Favorite areas tended to be the southeast I love Savannah! I liked that with music I was in and out of most places but not being a partier and the owner of the touring van I also brought my bicycle cuz I would wake up early and go ride around the cities while the other guys slept

Yes, it really does! It feels different from when we moved here 6 years ago.
