Sometimes Kansans just seem like something special. These Qualities Kansans have are really a core reason why Kansas is such a relaxing state to live in. What do you think about these qualities of Kansans? Do you have all of them yourself?

  1. A friendly face nearby who is always ready to chat to pass the time.

  1. A love for the sky unmatched by any others.

  1. An appreciation for simple homemade food that comes from the heart.

James/Flickr Biscuits and gravy, simple fried chicken, and homemade stew are just a few of the comforting yet simple meals we enjoy. It’s just a Kansas thing!

  1. Knowledge about just how beautiful Kansas really is.

  1. Small town restaurants that make you feel like family as you chow down on the best eats around.

Patrick Emerson/Flickr You know that diner in that tiny town with the best food ever? It turns out not every state has those all over the place like we do.

  1. A healthy doubt for what the forecast says.

State Farm/Flickr Hey, it’s not our fault we’re surprised so often! Being prepared is just something we do these days.

  1. Enjoying the small things in life.

  1. An endless resistance and acceptance for wind constantly blowing at us.

Patrik Nygren/Flickr We know what it’s like to be told it’s too windy for kite flying outside! You think the wind is nice until it’s so fast you can’t hear.

  1. Immunity from the smell of cow trailers.

Tim Kuzdrowski/Flickr You notice the smell as a kid but if you travel, you’ll get used to it real quick.

  1. Neighborhoods full of people who care about the well being of others.

Donna Keher/Flickr Having neighbors that care about you and form a community are always a reliable resource to have.

  1. A healthy love for weird art.

Patrick Emerson/Flickr Lucas is one city that we all love, and a big source of the grassroots art we see over much of Kansas.
