About the Region

Great Plains

This Great Plains grouping includes the Dakotas, Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa, and Missouri. It brings together plains communities, agricultural areas, and metropolitan centers such as Omaha, Kansas City, and Des Moines.

North-south and east-west differences matter for temperature and rainfall. Distances and available services also vary between rural communities and metropolitan neighborhoods. The regional label alone does not establish affordability, storm exposure, or dependence on a car; use local evidence for those decisions.
