120 range in KS, 15 year mortgage on a 2,600ft^2 house is $2k on the nose. Commute is 15 minutes. KS isn't all that bad folks :)

I lived in Little Rock for high school and Norman, OK for college. How does KS compare? Shit you could not pay me enough to go back to Oklahoma or Arkansas.

I would say those are not comparable cities. Way more to do in KC (but not as much as like Chicago).

What part? I visited KC earlier this and frankly didn't find it too terrible, but idk if I'd live in like Topeka or Wichita

Olathe (Southern Suburbia). Yeah, Topeka and Wichita are off the menu for me, but I'd gladly be anywhere between Lawrence and Lees Summit (on the Missouri Side) South of I-70 and North of Gardner. And while Downtown KC isn't going to stack up to the non-stop adventure of a "Big City", there's still plenty to do, and the other quality of life bonuses add up.

Looking at some similar stats here right outside Atlanta. 30 year mortgage with 3,800ft^2 for $2.1k. Commute is 30m-40m.

Seconding KS, though. I've only been a handful of times and I really like it.
