Johnson County Reviews
Rating 4.38 out of 5 26 reviews
My experience growing up in the Johnson County area has left a pretty positive impact on what I could accomplish and become inspired by. Whether it was community service, compromising, and many other ways people in the community can be helped out. It's overall a mostly liberal place, yet some people are still pretty conservative. The public schools here are also really great at getting everyone involved in wanting what's best for each person living here. A lot of the school teachers here are amazing at there and it's easy to tell they loving being teachers and deserve higher paychecks. Everyone is mostly pretty polite to each other without creating tension or getting into arguments or fights. It's also extremely safe here considering in this part of Kansas, public safety is taken very seriously. There is also a huge diversity of ethnic backgrounds from all over the world and considering it's one the most affordable parts of the country to live in makes it a bonus for real estate.
I moved here approximately four years ago, and I could get into much better schools than the schools I would have attended if I was still in my hometown. The highschools here are excellent and allow you to choose an academy that focuses your learning on what you are most interested in. After moving here, my grades skyrocketed, and my motivation for learning increased.
Johnson county is the safest area you will ever find in the Midwest. Night time in this city is peaceful as well as life full. There is no need to worry of staying out too late, or worrying of potential danger out walking around your neighborhood. Public schools are renovated each year to have the school looking nice new fresh for the students to attend.
