Modern-day frontier town
Outside the hub of Kansas City and its close-by suburbs is Grain Valley, an archetypal frontier town complete with several false-front stores on its Main Street. The location of this former farming town helps it balance a slow-paced rural lifestyle with urban access and amenities. While out-of-towners flock to the town’s big events like car and motorcycle races and line dancing nights, locals stick around for community gatherings like the annual Downtown Spooktacular and Father-Daughter Dance, historic farms and beautiful local walking trails. “Grain Valley is my home, it’s where I grew up, it’s where my kids are growing up,” says Mike Todd, the Mayor of Grain Valley. “I think it’s a great place, and I think just about anyone who lives here thinks it’s a great place.”

Unique builds along gridded streets
Grain Valley’s residential areas are laid out in grids, making neighborhoods well-organized and filled with sizable “city lots” with large yards. Houses at the center of town tend to be midcentury ranch-style homes ranging from $200,000 to $300,000, while properties on the northern and southern ends of Grain Valley are often newer two-story builds that can cost up to $400,000. While they share some similar styles, properties in Grain Valley rarely look exactly alike, and homes can range from unassuming brick structures to vibrant, asymmetrical builds painted with pops of green, blue and red.

Interstate 70 in the heart of town
Grain Valley embraces its identity as an “exurb” that is removed from the rest of the metro, but major highway Interstate 70 runs straight through town. The highway gives the town a close link the metropolitan center of Kansas City 23 miles away as well as the historic city of Independence 15 miles away. However, due to Grain Valley’s far-away location, Kansas City Transit does not serve the area, so residents are car-dependent. The community also depends on neighboring areas like Blue Springs for important amenities like St. Mary’s Medical Center, which is 5 miles from Grain Valley.

Line dance the night away at MO Country
While the area lacks retail options, Grain Valley locals can still run errands at general stores like Price Chopper on Mcquerry Road or specialty shops like Mactan Asian Market on Eagles Parkway. The town’s biggest retail draw is Brass Armadillo Antique Mall on Golfview Drive, which has antiques and collectibles from hundreds of vendors stored in a 42,000-square-foot showroom.

When the sun goes down, locals over the age of 21 can head to MO Country, the self-proclaimed “largest line dancing bar in Missouri” on South Outer Road. The club has four full-service bars and one of the largest dance floors in the Midwest.

Grain Valley is home to the Valley Speedway and the Grain Valley Motocross Park along Old Highway 40, which attract both locals and visitors for heart-pumping car and motorcycle races.
