However, I have lived in the KC area since 2002, so I can at least help with that. I live in the SW area of KC... Did you sign a lease up in North KC because it's close to where you'll be working? Because there are a lot of areas in the NKC area that can be a bit sketchy. Have a safe drive!

FYI-- I noticed there was not a KC group on here, so I started one. Kansas City Bavarians... feel free to join that! Then there will be 2 of us!

still a few shady areas but nothing terrible. Those apartments are off armour/210 it's a cool little industrial area and you should have zero problems there. The general rule for areas to avoid: Anything east of Troost (runs from bannister rd to independence ave) and west of 435 Ruskin Heights (my home) and Hickman Mills area - neighborhood around blue ridge blvd and longview road and the triangle between 470, 435, and 350 The northeast and almost anything along independence ave KCK, that little loop between the river and 635 just west of where you live Of course those are very broad boundaries Enjoy our city man! |

Hey guys! Sorry to bump an old thread but I just moved to Kansas City too and am looking for a shop recommendation to do a spring install on my F30. Any recommendations? Also, do you guys do any meets? It would be great to meet some others around here.

Hey guys, just moved from Houston over to KC. Looking for a good shop to do paint repair/body work. Any recommendations?
Also, as far as dealerships go... Baron or BMW of Kansas City South? Which would you prefer for service?

Yep definitely join the Facebook group as there isn't much discussion here. Also don't go to the BMW dealership for service unless you want to be ripped off. :]
