There is no need for them to send their corporate execs to the Siberia of America. I am betting they will look at locations like Dallas where there are huge talent pools, safety from climate change related crap, great air transportation options, warm weather, and a low cost of living.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-73939557758872306712017-09-10T23:16:35.429-05:002017-09-10T23:16:35.429-05:00I was just reading that the drop in property value...I was just reading that the drop in property values which equals a drop in tax revenue is what caused the school problems in the 70's , and now people will complain that property values will go up?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-3082164687454600672017-09-10T21:11:47.656-05:002017-09-10T21:11:47.656-05:00And of course the left never mentions how hoodrats...And of course the left never mentions how hoodrats cause a decline in property values.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-69305655005259520382017-09-10T20:52:09.952-05:002017-09-10T20:52:09.952-05:00Weez got da local beer and booze, da toy train, an...Weez got da local beer and booze, da toy train, and artizan barbecuez.

IMO Kansas City is not diverse or liberal enough for Amazon, that's what the article in the NYT was trying to get across without saying it straight out that they want a very progressive city.

Many business people will tell you 60 percent of the people are one paycheck from disaster. The outher 40 percent are careful where they spend thats why they have it. It will be Great if they Locate within the metro area. The metro is so spread out people will still have an affordable place to live.

House buying will still be based on location, shopping and schools something that a lot of Kansas City Mo does not have to offer. Out of town buyers will go north, east, west, and south of central Kansas City to buy homes. <br /><br />Buts lets be real here. Out of state people moving here won't be more than those hired who are already living here. Whats the need for a second headquarters if your going to move already in place staff there? If Amazon comes to Kansas City outside of building what they want we won't see all that much a change in things other than the local mass media falling all over themselves to report on it. 40k to 50k of people are not going to come rolling in to the area in a caravan of U-Hauls and every known nationwide moving companies all at once like a huge parade. It will be a trickle effect that most will never see.
