r/Overlandpark

Hello everyone! I’m a 27 year old dude that recently moved up from the Missouri bootheel area and honestly just trying to find some sense of community up here. Been feeling pretty isolated and I’m trying to build some kind of routine outside of work instead of sitting at home all the time, recently had a bunch of situations that led me to be up here, and I’m trying to rebrand and live life with more joy and improvement

Just looking for any recommendations on stuff like adult sports groups, adult game groups etc. just wanting to find something I can fit in with

Just moved to KC from another Tornado Alley city/state, had a weather guy we liked a lot. Who is the go to here?

Hello! Looking for any and all exterior painter recommendations that do quality work. Thank you in advance!

I am over near the central resource library in OP on 87th and am noticing all new leaf growth on plants in both the front and back yard is all curvy and curled, very abnormal. I thought it might have been just my tomatoes but I surveyed all of the yard and it’s everywhere, so wondering if it could have been herbicide/pesticide blow over. Intentionally planted things and volunteers, even stuff in neighboring yards and trees that we can see over the fence. Has anyone else been experiencing this in the area?

Edited to add pictures - plants in front and back, established trees, newer transplants and volunteers

Hi guys,

I recently got in contact with a seller/shop on Instagram called @concretefitstudio, and I’m considering doing business with them. Before moving forward, I wanted to check if anyone here has any reviews, experiences, or information about them.

They seem to deal a lot in Chrome Hearts pieces and other luxury/streetwear items.

Address they provided:

11149 W 95th St, Overland Park, KS 66214

They mentioned it’s the second store on your left as you exit the escalator — not inside the main Oak Park Mall building itself, but next to Oak Park Mall.

If anyone has dealt with @concretefitstudio before or knows whether they’re trustworthy, I’d really appreciate your feedback. Mainly looking to know:

\* Are they legit?

\* Any scams or red flags?

\* Past buying/selling experiences?

\* Whether their Chrome Hearts items are authentic

\* General reputation locally

Anyone have recommendations for places who hire 14 year olds? Ideally somewhere along 135th st since she won’t be able to drive for a few more months…but that’s not a deal breaker.

Getting beyond frustrated with our apartment search in Overland Park or Leawood. We have a pit bull mix and she is a DREAM of a dog with other people, kids, and dogs. However, so many nicer apartments won’t allow pit bulls, even mixes.

I can’t believe in 2026 apartment buildings are still going by breed and not temperament tests or vet verification of their demeanor. I’m willing to spend $2500 a month but cant because of this outdated nonsense. Our other dog is significantly worse behaved (although still very sweet) but no issues since his breed isn’t prohibited.

Anyone know of nice apartments in this area who allow pitbull mixes/don’t have breed restrictions?

Trying to do some stuff for my wife’s birthday this week. We are both in our 20s

I am planning on taking her to the Activate Game room place so I figure just spend the day in Overland Park. It’s a total surprise to her but as soon as I saw it I knew it was the type of thing she would love.

Any places you would recommend either outdoor things or other activities/restaurants that would be fun without breaking the bank?

Thinking about trying the cinzettis Italian buffet is it any good?

Don’t know if this exists here anymore (I just moved back) I know the prices are crazy but I’m looking for these qualities: $1100-1300, 1 or 2 bedrooms, pet friendly, chill management, private patios and/or fireplaces. The reviews online make this process harder because most OP places within this budget have terrible reviews. Please. Totally fine with old buildings that have mild issues.

Can anyone recommend a place to get pre-owned kids golf clubs? My daughter (11) has started classes and would like her own set. I don’t want to spend too much because she’s one growth spurt away with being adult height. Is there any other difference between kid and adult clubs besides length? I’m not a golfer.

Hello! A friend and I are interested in moving near KCK. We are looking at apartments in Overland park. Our budget is around $1500 for a 2 bed apartment. What are some safe and good apartments in that area? I am not from Overland Park so I am completely lost on what are good apartments to rent from down there.

I'm hosting a small event next week in Overland Park and wanted to see if anyone here might want to come.

The short version: you show up, you bedazzle a prescription pill bottle (I know, just trust me), and there's a lightly guided conversation hat gets into some real stuff. Mental health, how you cope, the things you carry around but don't usually say out loud with other people.

It's small on purpose, 16 people max. The whole point is actually connecting, not just being in the same room.

I've been doing versions of this for a few years and it keeps surprising me how much people open up once their hands are busy with something. There's something about doing a craft together that makes the harder conversations easier.

$20 to help cover the cost of the kit, which you take home (the bottle, rhinestones, tools, etc are included). The real value is just getting in a room with other women who want to actually talk.

If you're interested, drop a comment or DM me and I'll send you the link. Keeping it low-key on purpose. Looking forward to bringing OP women together ❤️

I’m preparing to move to OP soon and need to get my trash/recycling service set up. I found some older posts regarding the KC Disposal vs WM debate and it sounded to me like KCD was a more reliable service but with a cost that keeps getting jacked up each year and WM is your typical large corporate provider that offers low prices with inconsistent service and doesn’t care when they mess up. Does anyone have a different experience than that? Also open to other recommended providers.

Hey y’all! I’ve been in Oregon for the last few months as I’ve recently moved, but I’m coming back to OP for three weeks. What’s changed since the end of February, and is there anything I need to look out for from 135th to 159th? Also, what new food spots would be recommended?

As it says, which of the Peanuts has the best space for eating outdoors in a beautiful day? ☀️
