Review of Overland Park, Kansas


OP Truth
Star Rating - 5/23/2012
I completely agree with Robert. My family has lived in other cities/states and have never encountered meaner, more materialistic, money grubbing, two faced people in our lives. OP people really do teach their children that money is the most important thing in the world. When you meet someone new, the first thing they will tell you about is all the things they own and how much money they have.

Sara, I totally agree with you we also just moves here. I am totally taken a back on how the kids act. We have only been her 3 weeks and I hate it. We have a nine year old and a 13 year old daughter. All the kids talk about in school is how pretty their mom's are and what neighborhood they live in. There is no diversity either. I'm counting the days down that we can move back to Montana.

As a person who grew up in OP… The fact that you mention what your husband/breadwinner occupation's is a true test that you are jealous of the superior lifestyle that OP has to offer. If you only could compete!
