Decent... But "Not For Everyone"! 2 rating By Anonymous ( Jul 21, 2022) Leawood has been a really nice location for my wife and I (both 35 years old), we lived here for 5 years and we like it fine, however: for gen Z and millennial crowds: beware that... you will not like it here under most circumstances, coming from a Las Vegas native if you are sen ...Read More sitive... nothing too shabby or any beautiful scenery, just people walking dogs, average people mowing lawns, old people whining sometimes. Weather here is extremely unpredictable and borderline bipolar, but keep in mind that rarely do we get tornados surprisingly; it snows in winter when it's cold, but not as cold as Chicago or Minneapolis...

The area is costly but not severely so. Avg rent is $2-3K monthly and gasoline and fuel prices are still average... The avg house rent (not apartment rent) is about the same as Phoenix, Las Vegas, Denver, and few west coast cities like Sacramento, CA, Eugene and Salem, OR etc...

Where to eat, it's quite spread out. Not bad at all and not even Overland ParK, KS options are bad! Joe's BBQ in kCK, here in Leawood, and one in Olathe, KS....

I hope that you understand it is NOT FOR EVERYONE. And in fact i's just another midwestern suburb in another midwestern city... Read Less
