This one should be an easy one for you. It's ubiquitous in our area but we don't know what it is.
Any help is appreciated :)

Looks like basic Coreopsis to me. There are a number of variations, but this one looks like the basic good old standard.

Those thin leaves and bright yellow flowers leads me to think:

Threadleaf Coreopsis

Coreopsis verticillata 'Zagreb'
Common Name: threadleaf coreopsis
Type: Herbaceous perennial
Family: Asteraceae
Zone: 3 to 9

Thanks ya'll! :) I knew you guys would have the answer.
I was intrigued by the name "Zagreb" as well.
Apparently they are colloquially called "tickseeds" as well but I don't like that name :s so coreopsis it is!
