This is a listing of incorporated cities located in the U.S. state of Kansas. ==City requirements== All incorporated communities in Kansas are called cities, unlike in some states where some are called towns. (11 of 50 states only have cities.) Once a city is incorporated in Kansas, it will continue to be a city even after falling below the minimum required to become a city, and even if the minimum is later raised.〔(Census - Places; census.gov )〕 A city can de-incorporate, but if citizens decide to re-incorporate at a later date, then new minimum requirements must be met. By State law, cities in Kansas are divided into three classes. * Cities of the 3rd Class - When a city incorporates, it becomes a city of the 3rd class. To incorporate, a city must generally have either 300 inhabitants or 300 or more platted lots served by water and sewer lines. This minimum requirement has increased since older historical minimum requirements. * Cities of the 2nd Class - A city may petition to become a city of the 2nd class when its population is more than 2,000 but less than 15,000. A city whose population is between 2,000 and 5,000 may elect to remain a city of the 3rd class, but must become a city of the 2nd class when it reaches 5,000 population. * Cities of the 1st Class - A city may petition to become a city of the 1st class when its population reaches 15,000. A city whose population is between 15,000 and 25,000 may elect to remain a city of the 2nd class but must become a city of the 1st class when it reaches 25,000 population. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of cities in Kansas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
