Living inLenexa
History, art, culture and recreation all unite in Lenexa, Kan. A recent development boom has resulted in a number of attractions, including the Lenexa City Center, a bustling city hub that was more than 20 years in the making. The five-acre site is home to Lenexa City Hall, Lenexa Rec Center and Lenexa Public Market, a food hall that showcases the culinary expertise of local vendors. Outside of this bustling and vibrant city center, quiet neighborhoods offer idyllic surroundings that are ideal places for kids to run and play. Lenexa’s prime location in the heart of Johnson County puts residents just minutes away from downtown Kansas City, the Country Club Plaza and Kansas City International Airport. The Kansas 7 and Kansas 10 corridor is easily accessible, too, enabling convenient access to Topeka and Lawrence. Renowned schools — including a state-of-the-art high school — are also close by. It’s no wonder the unofficial motto of the city is “I like Lenexa.” It’s easy to do!
