Latino leaders from all over the country will come to Kansas City in 2015 when KC will play host to La Raza, a civil rights group for Hispanics.

Speaking of crossing the border, Kansas City ranks #4 on the list of cities where residents commute to another state to work. Around 95,000 Missourians cross into Kansas and 87,000 people go the other direction. Only New York, D.C. and Philly have more border crossers. The rest of us drive back and forth looking for free parking.
