Vineyard Northwest
Vineyard Northwest features bungalows and ranch homes
Residents in the neighborhood live in 1950s bungalows and ranch homes. Asking prices often start around $75,000 and peak at $200,000. “Homes are sold on average here for 96% of their sale price,” says Marline Brown, Realtor for Murrell Homes. “The average days on the market is seven.” Multiple move-in-ready options wait here, but those who want to invest in a renovation project can also find homes ready for touch-ups. Homeowners often park on uncovered driveways that occupy their moderate to large yards. The roads that run throughout the neighborhood are slim, so most lack sidewalks.

All students get free meals at Central High
Parents send their kids to the nearby Melcher Elementary, which earns a C-plus from Niche. Central Middle gets a D-plus, and kids often learn here before transitioning to Central High, rated C-plus. All three schools offer free breakfast and lunch to all students enrolled.Genesis School is a charter school that serves kindergarten through eighth grade. Kids join classes with a literacy focus and the end goal of forming self-sufficient leaders. Not only does every student get free breakfast, lunch, transportation, and before- and after-school care at the next-door Boys and Girls Club, but also the opportunity to join family or group counseling.

Practicing baseball at Cleveland Park
Cleveland Park, stretched across 29 acres, makes up most of the neighborhood’s heart. It’s most popular for its four baseball fields and concessions frequented by local leagues, but the playground is also a hot spot for kids to have fun. Seven Oaks Park also has playground equipment surrounded by open grassy areas, a paved walking trail and a nearby splash pad.
Chowing down on a D'Backz Monster Burger
Locals don’t have to go far for a bite to eat. Less than a mile northwest, Double Backz Breakfast and Burgers serves their D’Backz Monster Burger, packed with a double patty, onion rings, bacon, cheese and barbecue sauce. Sankofa Cafe & Bar offers authentic Jamaican dishes for lunch and dinner, but customers can also stop by to relax with friends at the bar.When homeowners need to stock up on groceries, they visit Aldi or the Blue Parkway Sun Fresh. Residents might also stop by the Family Dollar on East 39th Street to pick up last-minute essentials. Sun Fresh is part of The Shops on Blue Parkway center, where locals can find clothes at Rainbow Shops or plenty of options at Shoe Trend 17.
Cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium
It’s hard to live in Kansas City and not be a Kansas City Chiefs or Kansas City Royals fan. Luckily, Vineyard Northwest residents can drive less than 4 miles to the Harry S. Truman Sports Complex to cheer on their favorite team. “Kansas City has been undergoing major redevelopments in the past 15 years. The city will probably vote to move the Kansas City Royals to a new stadium downtown and build a sky park,” Galbrecht says. Even if the team moves downtown, Vineyard Northwest residents will have a short drive to see their favorite baseball team play.
Driving or busing to work downtown
RideKC bus stops sit around the neighborhood, including along East 43rd Street and East 39th Street. Locals can use public transportation or drive 7 miles to work or hang out in downtown Kansas City. Residents can also walk along the skinny paved sidewalk to visit nearby Cleveland Park.Getting care at the Kansas City VA Medical Center
The Kansas City VA Medical Center sits north of the neighborhood, less than 2 miles away. Veterans in Vineyard Northwest can take a short trip to get medical care.
