My family and I just moved to the Leawood, KS area in late July 2019. We moved from Lebanon, MO, a small town in central Missouri. We came here in the hopes of having new, never-ending, suburban adventures. We were a little disappointed. Sure, the restaurants and shopping centers are always nice, but there isn't much beyond that. Our neighborhood is terribly boring and full of middle-aged women always complaining to the HOA that are trash cans are partially visible. They look down at us as if we are nothing more than low-class hillbillys. And on top of that, we pay fee after fee and tax after tax for things that we've never even heard of. The public school isn't much better either. It is the most average and boring place I have ever been to. All in all, this place is flashy, but not worth the price tag.
This place is great, the neighbors generally can be very friendly and polite, the only downside is the small amount of very snotty neighbors, and the fact no marijuana dispensaries are in either the Kansas or Missouri side (the recreational marijuana kind you find in California, Colorado, Illinois, New York state, etc).
Other than that, it is a good place to live in overall.

Great place to live and raise a family! Amazing nearby schools both public and private. Safe and caring community with great shops & restaurants.
