Kansas City Maps and Orientation

(Kansas City, Missouri - MO, USA)



Although Jefferson City may be the capital of Missouri, it is actually Kansas City that serves as the state's biggest city - by far. Located on the western side of Missouri and close to the border with Kansas (KS), this city actually lies within a number of adjoining counties, namely those of Cass, Clay, Jackson and Platte.

Various main highways carve up the city and its surrounding suburbs, such as the Interstates I-35, I-70, I-435 and I-670, and also Highway US-71. Notable districts based around central Kansas City include the historical River Market, the 18th and Vine District and the Westport District, as well as the area surrounding the enormous Country Club Plaza precinct, which is known for its high concentration of eateries and shops around Broadway.

Smaller neighborhoods, residential areas and suburbs of Kansas City include those of Armour Hills, Blue Hills, Brookside, Hickman Mills, Kensington, Mount Hope, Pendleton Heights, Quality Hill, Riverview, Ruskin Heights, Shawnee Heights, Southmoreland, Squier Park, Union Hill, Ward Parkway and Westport, amongst others.
