KANSAS CITY METRO LOCATION
NOAA has been operating in Kansas City since 1949. The NOAA facility is located 19 miles south of downtown Kansas City in the geographic center of the country and at times referred to as the “Heart of America.” This strategic location allows it to operate as the sole repair and distribution center for NOAA and its sub-agencies. The metro’s population of more than 2.1 million, which reflects a growth rate of 18% since 2000, is expected to exceed 2.2 million residents by 2022. There are more limited access highway lane-miles per capita than any other large US metro area, over 50% more than the average American metropolitan area.
