Kansas City, Kansas
Kansas City (Kansas), city in northeastern Kansas and seat of Wyandotte County. The city is located at the confluence of the Kansas (Kaw) River and the Missouri River. The city is adjacent to Kansas City, Missouri, with which it has a high degree of economic interdependence; the cities together are at the core of one of the principal metropolitan regions of the central United States. Kansas City is a commercial, manufacturing, and distribution center for the surrounding crop-farming and livestock-raising area. Major manufactures include processed food (especially meat), automobiles, building materials, telecommunications equipment, machinery, chemicals, and refined petroleum.
The city is the site of the Medical Center (established in 1905) of the University of Kansas and three junior colleges. Although most of the area's museums and attractions are on the Missouri side of the state line, the attractions located in Kansas are the National Agricultural Hall of Fame, displaying farm implements and machinery; the Shawnee Indian Methodist Mission, dating from 1830; Woodlands, a track for greyhound racing; and Grinter House, a home built in 1867 that housed the first civilian post office in the Kansas Territory. A 19th-century Native American cemetery has been preserved in downtown Kansas City. A Renaissance Festival is held annually.
Settled in 1843 by the Wyandot people, the site was sold to the federal government in 1855. The community of Wyandotte was plotted two years later and incorporated as a city in 1859. The area developed as a major cattle market and meat-packing center after 1869, when Wyandotte became a station on the first transcontinental railroad. In 1886 the communities of Wyandotte, Armstrong, and Armourdale were combined to form Kansas City.
Later, adjoining settlements such as Argentine, Quindaro, Rosedale, and Turner were annexed by the city. During the 1970s and 1980s, the towns and cities that comprise Kansas City's suburban area developed their own industries, businesses, and corporate bases. As a result, the population of the city declined, while nearby suburban communities grew. Kansas City is named for the state, which in turn took its name from the Kansa people.
Kansas City covers a land area of 279.2 sq km (107.8 sq mi), with a mean elevation of 235 m (771 ft). According to the 1990 census, whites are 65 percent of the population, blacks 29.4 percent, Asians and Pacific Islanders 1.1 percent, and Native Americans 0.7 percent. The remainder are of mixed heritage or did not report ethnicity. Hispanics, who may be of any race, are 6.9 percent of the people. Population 161,087 (1980); 149,767 (1990); 141,297 (1998 estimate).
