Letter to the editor: KCK growing faster than Lawrence, too

To the editor:

I found Chad Lawhorn’s article about Lawrence population loss quite interesting, but he neglected to include Kansas City, Kansas, in his list of other Kansas cities that have not experienced such losses. With a population currently estimated at 156,977, KCK is the state’s third largest municipality, trailing Wichita and Overland Park. It reportedly experienced a 0.09% population increase in the last year, which, while positive, was lower than suburban communities in the KC Metro–but considerably better than Lawrence.
