Quiet enclave in Kansas City's Northland

Surrounded by open swaths of grassy fields, Nashua is a residential enclave in Kansas City's Northland offering a tranquil suburban atmosphere — without sacrificing convenience. "For me, it's close to the bank, the dentist, the doctor's office, so I don't have to drive far to get to those places," says Joëlle Six, owner of Joëlle's Baked With Love, a bakery that's been in the neighborhood for three years. Although major highways are located to the north and west, residents find peace and quiet on their tree-lined streets. The North Kansas City School District helps to mold the neighborhood's younger generation with top-notch schools, located less than 3 miles away.
