For as long as most old-time residents can remember, Lee’s Summit has positioned itself as "A City Bountiful." There was abundant land and a generous spirit among its people. This strong heritage hasn’t been altered as the city steadily blossoms into a beautiful suburb supporting approximately 86,000 residents within 63.63 square miles. But the message to outsiders has been tooled for interactive times. Lee’s Summit is now spreading its wings as the city "Where Quality Comes to Life."

Quality schools are at the top of any newcomer’s wish list. Lee’s Summit R-7 and Blue Springs School district's have been recognized throughout the state and nationwide for academic excellence and their ability to adjust to a fast-growing student population.

Quality also plays a major role in a community rich in housing opportunities. Lee's Summit has a well-stocked existing home market, with approximately 180 single-family subdivisions. Lee’s Summit and the Kansas City region consistently rate among the top buyer-friendly cities in the nation for housing affordability.

Lee’s Summit is one of the largest cities in Missouri based on geographic size, and also prides itself on being family friendly. Besides the award-winning schools, the area is rife with lakes, outdoor parks, public libraries, and year-round youth athletic and non-athletic activities. Adding to the quality of life mix are several churches of various denominations and a crime rate lower than similar-sized communities in Missouri.
