Living in Independence
Best known as the hometown of President Harry S. Truman, Independence in Missouri has long been noted for its beautiful historic mansions, sports and shopping. Whether you are new to the city or have been here for many years, there are many ways in which you can benefit from the InterNations platform. Through our interactive forums and discussion groups, you can take advantage of our global community to connect with expats living in Independence and around the world and learn from their experiences of life abroad. Also, you will find a wealth of information on our site pertaining to all aspects of expat life. On a more local level, we allow you to get in touch with other expatriates in Independence in order to give and to receive advice. Or, if you are looking to socialize, perhaps you could arrange to get together for drinks or to go see some of the sights, such as the historic Independence Square or the National Frontier Trails Museum.

Moving to Independence
As the traditional departure point for the California, Oregon and Santa Fe trails, Independence has long been accustomed to welcoming out-of-towners. However, InterNations understands that relocation can be a tricky business and we strive to do all we can to help with your move to “The Queen City of the Trails.” In particular, our Expat Magazine is a great resource for getting started in a new city. Here you can find detailed articles on a wide range of topics relevant to expats such as Insurance, Finance and Living Abroad. These articles draw on expatriate experiences from all corners of our global network and contain a wide range of information relevant to moving. Also, by helping you to connect with other expats, our platform will give you access to a whole world of first-hand advice as you are moving to Independence.

Just 14 miles from Kansas City and with over 4,000 businesses, Independence is a place full of opportunities. As an expat working in Independence, the ability to network effectively will go a long way towards helping your career. Whether you are looking to expand your network in and around Independence itself or to build more international connections, you will have exclusive access to the InterNations community of global minds via our forums and discussion groups, as well as the opportunity to develop contacts through private correspondence with other members. On top of this, we offer a great variety of work related information online, both via our Expat Magazine and in the form of articles written by expatriates based on their own experiences.
