MOviN’ ON up<br />
National recognition is becoming par for the course in Lee’s <strong>Summit</strong>. Two years ago CNN/Money Magazine<br />
added Lee’s <strong>Summit</strong> to the country’s Top 100 communities by placing us at number 76.<br />
In 2006 we made the Top 100 again, moving<br />
further up the rankings to number 44.<br />
From median home prices to student test<br />
scores; from job growth to household income<br />
Lee’s <strong>Summit</strong> ranks in the top ten nationally<br />
and regionally.<br />
These are the results of a “slicing and dicing”<br />
exercise your LSEDC completed using the<br />
statistics compiled by CNN/Money Magazine.<br />
We took their statistics a step further. We<br />
compared Lee’s <strong>Summit</strong> to the magazine’s<br />
Top 10 communities. We also cross-tabbed<br />
Lee’s <strong>Summit</strong> with ten leading communities<br />
in Greater Kansas City. In both cases, Lee’s<br />
<strong>Summit</strong> stacked up quite well. Check out the<br />
facts on our website in the Data Center tab’s<br />
studies subsection.<br />
