Camden vs Kansas City -which is better?

Hey, We have two kids and Crime rate is something to consider -Camden sits at 337.6 per 100K. Rent is about $1,157/month for a decent place. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. What do you all think? The food scene here is surprisingly good. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much.

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are average, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 2 years ago from Minneapolis and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Uptown. It's tough for what you get.

Jobs: The market is manageable right now, especially in hospitality. If you're in construction you might struggle.

People: Generally decent. It took about 14 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: underrated. Tons of options if you like seafood.

No regrets on my end..
