“I have lived in Kansas most all of my life, moving around with my father’s job while I was younger. We landed in Independence a few times — and it ended up just being the place I came back to as an adult. This is a great place to raise kids in a safe environment. There are plenty of activities for young kids up to adults to enjoy a laid-back lifestyle. As a young professional, there are also many opportunities to grow your career.”
