What this tracks
This dataset records the administrative boundaries for Kansas state government departments, divided into numbered regions.
Why it matters to you
If you’re applying for state services like business licenses or permits in Kansas, knowing your lottery region helps you identify which local office handles your application. A restaurant owner in Wichita could check this data to confirm whether they should contact Region 3 or Region 4 for health inspections, avoiding delays from filing paperwork with the wrong office.
How to read this data
REGION — A number (like 3) identifying which administrative area a location falls under. Different state services use these same regional boundaries.
SHAPE__Area and SHAPE__Length are technical GIS measurements not meaningful for most users.
