All About

Living in Lenexa, KS

When you rent a Lenexa apartment, you'll always have something fun to do in your spare time. Lenexa has so many festivals that the city is commonly referred to as the City of Festivals. When there isn't a festival going on, there are 30 different parks to visit and a new urban development project to look forward to over the next few years.

We hope you love your new Lenexa apartment, but chances are that you won't be in it that often. Why? Because you'll be too busy attending all of the city's fantastic festivals. The Great Lenexa Barbeque Battle features 187 teams competing in this official Kansas State Championship event. While the contest is going on, spectators can enjoy live music and entertainment. Lenexa was known as the Spinach Capital of the World in the 1930's, and citizens celebrate this heritage with a festival that includes a gigantic spinach salad, perhaps the biggest ever made. Waterfest is a unique one-day celebration in the summer that provides education about water and features fun, water-related activities for all to enjoy. These are just a few of the exciting festivals you can be a part of when you rent an apartment in Lenexa.

Step outside of your apartment and into one of Lenexa's 53 acres of recreational green space. Sar-ko-par Trails Park is one of the largest parks within the park district, and it plays host to the three festivals mentioned above, as well as many of Lenexa's other annual festivals. The park also features water slides, children's play areas, a two-acre lake and more.

If you want to be in the middle of all the action, look for apartments in Lenexa City Center. It's the city's latest project that will showcase a variety of shops, restaurants, residential properties, parks and more in the center of the city.

What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Lenexa

It's peaceful and quiet, very safe, and the people are very welcoming. The neighbors watch out for each other and are very social. Lot's of pet walking, exercise walking and inquiries to how you are doing.

Nothing unified or United. Nothing unique. Sorry sad tired trusted duested . The TJ r is now another option to get it done.

There are lots of people outside when I go on walks. I like seeing all of the families and children outside. Everyone is smiling when you walk past them.

The most special thing is its great tranquility. There is a lot of respect from the neighbors. Oppotunity shops are within walking distance

I enjoy camping and going out to dinner with my friends and doing anything outdoors. Also we like to watch movies and play games.
