Why Live in Heart of Independence

The Heart of Independence, also known as historic downtown Independence, is experiencing a revival with a rich array of small businesses and annual events that attract thousands. This neighborhood is steeped in history, featuring numerous historical markers, landmarks, and museums. Key attractions include the National Frontier Trails Museum, which highlights the area's role in the Oregon, California, and Santa Fe Trails, and the preserved home of President Harry Truman. The architectural landscape is diverse, with Craftsman bungalows, Foursquares, Colonials, Kansas City Shirtwaist homes, National-style homes, and New Traditional builds, primarily from the 1910s and 20s. Dining options are also historic, such as The Courthouse Exchange, a restaurant serving locals since 1899. The Independence Square offers a variety of gift shops, cafes, and small businesses. While the neighborhood has small markets and convenience stores, larger grocery stores like Hy-Vee and Aldi are located on 23rd Street. Annual events like Living Windows, where storefronts come alive with holiday scenes, draw significant crowds. Though the area lacks playgrounds and green spaces, McCoy Park nearby provides ball fields, a splash park, tennis courts, and accessible playgrounds. The Heart of Independence is 9 miles from downtown Kansas City, accessible via Truman Road, with Ride KC and IndeBus routes serving the neighborhood.
