LIVING IN PARKVILLE

Historic downtown charm meets wooded river bluffs and beautiful neighborhoods in one of the Kansas City area's most scenic communities.

Set among wooded limestone bluffs overlooking the Missouri River, Parkville has a character unlike almost anywhere else in the Kansas City area. Historic downtown Parkville sits along the river beneath the beautiful Park University campus, where locally owned shops, galleries, community events, and preserved architecture give the city its unmistakable small-town charm. The surrounding hills and mature trees create a scenic backdrop throughout the community, while nearby English Landing Park, Platte Landing Park, and the Parkville Nature Sanctuary provide miles of trails and abundant opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.

Parkville's residential areas offer considerable variety, from established homes near the historic center to newer neighborhoods and impressive custom homes set among the rolling, wooded terrain. Some of the area's most sought-after communities include The National Golf Club of Kansas City and Riss Lake, while nearby Weatherby Lake provides another popular option for residential lake living. With highly regarded Park Hill schools, convenient highway access, Kansas City International Airport just a short drive away, and downtown Kansas City easily accessible across the Missouri River, Parkville combines a peaceful setting with excellent access to the broader metro.

Parkville homes are served by the Park Hill School District.
