Most common accessibility failures among Kansas county sites
Check	Share failing	Sites failing
Links have a discernible name	64%	56
Heading elements appear in a sequentially-descending order	47%	41
Elements with an ARIA [role] that require children to contain a specific [role] have all required children	41%	36
Background and foreground colors have a sufficient contrast ratio	40%	35
[aria-hidden="true"] elements do not contain focusable descendents	31%	27

What each check means

Links have a discernible name. Links have unique, descriptive text so users know where they go. Screen reader users cannot identify or interact with elements.
Heading elements appear in a sequentially-descending order. Page headings follow a logical order without skipping levels. Keyboard users cannot efficiently navigate your site.
Elements with an ARIA [role] that require children to contain a specific [role] have all required children. Interactive groups contain all the child elements they need to work correctly. Screen readers cannot navigate grouped elements like menus or lists.
Background and foreground colors have a sufficient contrast ratio. Text and background colors meet minimum contrast ratios. Users with low vision cannot read your text.
[aria-hidden="true"] elements do not contain focusable descendents. Interactive elements are not hidden from screen reader users. Keyboard users can focus elements that screen readers cannot announce.

About this data

ScanGov scans the homepage of each county government site on our county list in Kansas. Scores come from the checks listed on standards.scangov.org. Sites were scanned between 7/18/2026 and 9/17/2026; each site's report shows its own scan date. A site counts as fully scanned when its homepage returned successfully and sent the scanner its page content. Averages, grade shares, failure rates, and ranks use fully scanned sites only. We weren't able to fully scan 13 sites because they did not respond, blocked the scanner, or returned no page content. They appear in the table without grades, each with its scan status, and are left out of every figure. Grades follow the ScanGov grade scale, and rank follows the ScanGov ranking method. The full dataset, including every county's raw results, is published in the ScanGov data repository.
