A Perfect "10" at Tallgrass Creek

Community has More Than 400 Residents and is Operating at a 99 Percent Occupancy

OVERLAND PARK, KS -- A drone photo shows Tallgrass Creek residents forming the number "10" to celebrate the tenth anniversary of their community. Their Friday, October 13, celebration included a Tailgate party, Bar-B-Que, dancing, and an appearance by the Kansas City Chiefs cheerleaders.


Tallgrass Creek's anniversary coincides with multi-faceted expansion of the community. The new 108-apartment home Hummingbird Square residence building opened this month with 85 percent of it already reserved. It will be 80 percent occupied by year's end. In addition, construction of the new 78-apartment home Goldfinch Lane residence building is underway with 25 percent of it already pre-reserved. This building will open next summer.


Tallgrass Creek today has more than 400 residents and is operating at a 99 percent occupancy, which exceeds industry standards. Seventy percent of Tallgrass Creek's residents moved from Kansas while 30 percent moved from Missouri and other out-of-state locales.
