Wow. Mission Hills, Ks 3rd wealthiest neighborhood in the country

Yowza.

I mean, I knew these people had money but I didn't think they were in the 3rd richest neighborhood in the country, even if they do tie for 3rd.

Another Forbes Magazine ranking we hit.

Their stats:


Average Median Income: $243,000
Mission Hills is a suburb of Kansas City. It's in Kansas, not Missouri, but is home to the richest people in the area, like Kansas City Royals legend George Brett. Its estimated median household income is $243,000.
Yeah, this is one of the neighborhoods we needed to give those extra tax breaks to, so they can have more money and we can have more national debt, but that's another story.

Cliff and I had some fun with this. I told him about Mission Hills, and then said, "They just haven't seen OUR fine neighborhood; we have the best trailer house around."
"Oh yeah," he answered, "they'd sh*t up a rope if they could see our trailer house."

Good for you.

They aren't measuring happiness, unfortunately, right?
