Money Magazine has maintained its crush on Overland Park. Only two years after Money named OP its seventh best place to live in the country, the magazine dropped the Kansas city back to ninth in the rankings.

Diving into the list, which ranks pricey homes and the rich and single (a combination of the single population and average income), a few other area towns have desirable traits, even if they aren’t among the best places to live. Manhattan, Kansas, has the shortest median commute in the nation at 11.2 minutes for the sixth youngest population (25.6 years old is the median age). Shawnee, Kansas, has the 21st cleanest air.
