Educational Region
Statusconfirmed to exist — resolves an earlier open question
Notethe Kansas Association of Educational Service Agencies (KAESA, kaesa.org) confirmed live as "an organization of seven education service centers" (ESSDACK, Smoky Hills, Greenbush, Orion, Keystone, Southwest Plains, Northwest ESC — some styled "Educational Service Centers," e.g. nkesc.org). No unified API/directory endpoint for a machine-readable service-area-to-district mapping — each ESC has its own site.
Population
Statusnot yet ingested
Recommended SourceUS Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP) — https://api.census.gov/data/{year}/pep/population — joins on the county FIPS from the counties source above. The municipalities source's own PopulationCensus field works as a quicker fallback.
