Coronado
Coronado homes have unique touches and rising price tags
Coronado is filled with bungalows and cottages, level and raised ranch homes, and the occasional Craftsman or Tudor-inspired residence. Properties are often painted in autumn colors or accented in brick. Homeowners also add touches like winding staircases, pops of dark red or bright yellow on the front door or windowpanes, and wide back patios. While many properties in the community were built in the 1950s, there has been a wave of new construction with residences built as recently as 2023. Regardless of the style, size, or age, Coronado homes are located along quiet, neatly organized lanes with large front lawns and abundant shade from the area’s many oak trees. The average range in Coronado is between $150,000 and $300,000, and prices have nearly doubled since 2022. “There are fewer homes on the market at this point, prices are up, and once a property gets listed, it moves fairly quickly,” says Charlie Stimac, owner of Triple Creek Realty, who has been selling homes in the Kansas City metro since 1997. “It’s not been the norm; there seem to be more cash buyers coming from the West Coast into the Midwest because they can afford to buy three times the home here.”

Post-graduation guidance through F. L. Schlagle High
Coronado families are zoned under the Kansas City Kansas Public Schools system. Eugene Ware Elementary School serves students from the eastern half of the neighborhood, while the Lindbergh Elementary School is accessible for kids from the central and western portions of the area. Both schools have a C-minus on Niche, and Gloria Willis Middle School also has a C-minus score. F. L. Schlagle High School has a C score on Niche and offers an in-school College and Career Academy to help students apply to school or find a job after graduation. The Kansas City Kansas Community College campus is on Coronado’s west side, providing local students a two-year avenue to a full bachelor’s program.
Interstates and the occasional bus connect to KCK
While Coronado is located on the outskirts of KCK, it is close to Interstates 70 and 635. These highways provide a 10-mile drive into both downtown Kansas City, Missouri and the center of KCK. The Ride KC transit system serves the area, and while some local bus stops are dotted along State Avenue, public transportation access can be limited.
Bite into a burger after shopping at Wyandotte Plaza
State Avenue at the center of Coronado is home to an Aldi grocery store and a Dollar Tree, while the Parallel Plaza Shopping Center at the northwestern corner of the community includes a Family Dollar. The Wyandotte Plaza shopping center is 3 miles to the west, offering a Price Chopper and several restaurants, like Mexican eatery Taqueria Arandas and Naree Kitchen Thai & Sushi. Mason Jar Brews and Burgers is also located in the Wyandotte Plaza, and serves monthly gourmet creations, like the Berry-Sassy Burger with blueberry-jalapeno jam.
After-school soccer at Welborn Park
Despite its more rural location, Coronado has few local parks, and most recreation spots are in surrounding areas or on the outskirts of the neighborhood. Welborn Park & Mini Pitch Soccer on North 57th Street and Thomson Park on North 59th Street are a short walk from FL Schlagle High School, providing the perfect place for teenagers to pick up an after-school soccer match. Eisenhower Park is another nearby green space that is 3 miles from the heart of Coronado and offers walking paths and a small playground. Painted Hills Golf Course on Parallel Parkway is an 18-hole course on the west side of the community with no membership required.

GreatSchools:
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
