Another set of new rankings from Niche suggests NEJC is a great place to live — especially if you’re just getting started in the world of “adulting.”

The top five suburbs for millennials in the Kansas City metro are all in northeast Johnson County, according to the rankings, which looked at more than 75 municipalities in the greater KC area.

The rankings took the number of millennials in the area, job opportunities, housing affordability and nightlife into account. The results put the following cities at the top of the list:

1.) Mission
2.) Roeland Park
3.) Westwood
4.) Fairway
5.) Merriam

Overland Park was number seven on the list. Prairie Village came in at 11. You can see the full rankings here.
