KANSAS CITY – The city of Topeka is hoping to bring new faces to town with financial incentives.

Topeka is offering up to $15,000 if you move there and buy a home, and up to $10,000 if you rent.

To get the incentives, the person’s employer has to participate and contribute to the program, and  the reimbursement would be paid after a year of residency.

Topeka also has programs that offer up to $5,000 for those who move to the Kansas state capitol after leaving the military and up to $5,000 for former residents to move back.

Other cities that offer financial incentives to relocate include Tulsa, Baltimore... and the entire state of West Virginia.
