Residents can walk to wide-ranging recreational facilities within their subdivisions, including pools and tennis courts.

Just 10 miles from Kansas City International Airport
Most residents here drive when heading outside the neighborhood, though the 229 bus route stops along Prairie View Road. I-29 connects residents to downtown Kansas City or the airport, which is only about 10 miles away – in this way, Northland has the edge over their neighbors south of the river. “Our airport is very unique,” Galbrecht says. In 2023, Kansas City International Airport completed an enormous renovation, unveiling a brand-new terminal. “The airport has a lot of local-owned restaurants that are unique to KC, and it really plays off of KC, who we are and what we offer.”
Zona Rosa and MCI Airport are just a short drive from the Parkdale-Walden neighborhood.
