MEME OF THE DAY
One more warm, mostly sunny day: 92 today. Then the pattern flips - 84 Wednesday with a 61% chance of rain, and 83 Thursday at 70%. It clears back up by Friday at a pleasant 87.
🛡️ Basehor Is the 3rd Safest City in Kansas
Here's a stat worth being proud of: according to the City of Basehor's own 2026 Legislative Priorities document, Basehor is the 3rd safest city in the state of Kansas.
It's the kind of fact a lot of longtime residents have never actually seen written down, even if it matches what living here feels like. The same document highlights Basehor's access to US-24/US-40 Highway and K-7 Highway, and notes the city falls within the Basehor-Linwood School District - all part of the case the city makes to state lawmakers for continued investment here.
