Leawood is known for its lovely residential neighborhoods, beautiful parks and excellent schools. Over the past several years, the City has benefited from additions of retail and office developments with a recent emphasis on mixed-use projects which have helped to continue the diversification of its residents. Enhancing its fine quality of life has remained a primary focus of the Leawood Governing Body as it strives to “grow with distinction.”  In addition to a thriving business community coupled with outstanding City services, its most important ingredient for success is the dynamic citizenry. Pride, generosity and enthusiasm continually fuel Leawood to even greater heights.
