Go downtown or catch a Kansas City Chiefs game

Vineyard residents live less than 10 minutes from Arrowhead Stadium where the Kansas City Chiefs play and less than half an hour from downtown Kansas City. The area has a quiet atmosphere because it sits far enough away from the busy areas, but residents don't have to travel far to join the action. "Vineyard is central to a lot of Kansas City attractions," says Marline Brown, Realtor for Murrell Homes. "Drive times are very short when traveling to entertainment and surrounding areas like Raytown and Independence." Residents who want to get some fresh air visit Vineyard Park or get a day pass for the Mary Williams-Neal Community Center for indoor fun.

Driving or taking the bus to downtown KC

Those who need to commute to downtown Kansas City can connect onto U.S. Highway 71 or Interstate 70. The downtown area sits 4 miles away, so commuters can expect to spend roughly 30 minutes on the road. RideKC buses also give locals a route downtown with stops throughout the neighborhood and along Emanual Cleaver II Boulevard. Travelers can also go just north of downtown Kansas City to catch a flight at the Charles B. Wheeler Downtown Airport.

1950s bungalows and ranch homes

Homes here can sell for anywhere from $100,000 to $250,000, with most options being 1950s ranch homes, bungalows and split-level houses. “Investors do a lot of work out there because they can buy homes for a low price, flip them and sell them,” says Paul Galbrecht, the owner, CEO and Realtor of Paul Michael Homes, who has sold homes throughout Kansas City. “But I’ve seen people who have lived for a long time, just moved there or bought an investment home.” Most residents have attached garages, paved driveways and moderate yards. The streets are slim in the neighborhood, so most have sidewalks on one side of the road or none at all. Future residents can easily find homes with three bedrooms and over 1,000 square feet of space. The St. Michael’s Veterans Center Apartments also sits in the neighborhood along Chelsea Circle.

Juicy ribs and burnt ends at LC's Bar-B-Q

LC’s Bar-B-Q offers a full menu packed with ribs, sandwiches, burnt ends and sides. The restaurant has been named one of the best barbecue spots in Kansas City by multiple different magazines. They also have their signature seasoning and sauce for a kick of extra flavor that customers can purchase to use at home. Grocery shopping isn’t far with The Blue Parkway Sun Fresh in The Shops on Blue Parkway center. Other residents head north to browse the options at the Aldi on Prospect Avenue. The Shops on Blue Parkway also features Rainbow Shops and Shoe Trend 17. For more restaurant and shopping options, locals take a short drive to downtown Kansas City.

Volunteering at Global One Urban Farming

Global One Urban Farming welcomes volunteers to garden and support the community by creating a source of fresh produce. They also strive to teach students how to create a sustainable garden and the skills to maintain it. The Kansas City Chiefs football team plays at Arrowhead Stadium, less than 4 miles away. Also at the Harry S. Truman Sports Complex, the Kansas City Royals play at Kauffman Stadium. So residents are always a short drive away from seeing a major sports event.

Enjoying the sunshine at Vineyard Park

Smack in the middle of the neighborhood lies Vineyard Park, an outdoor spot for kids to hang out on the playground, locals to get their steps in along the paved walking trail and dog owners to run around the open grassy area. Residents who prefer indoor fun visit the Mary Williams-Neal Community Center. Locals can visit daily, and kids 17 years old and younger can enter for free. The community pool always gets busy during the summer. People stop by the Spirit of Freedom Fountain before heading inside the community center for kid’s summer camps, adult fitness boot camps or chair aerobics.

Students get free meals at Central High

Parents send their kids to the nearby George Melcher Elementary, which gets a C-minus from Niche. Central Middle earns a D-plus and Central High gets a C-plus. Both of these schools share one campus, and all students can grab breakfast or lunch for free.

Long-lasting churches and new changes

Five churches rest in the immediate area. The Greater Mount Zion Baptist Church has been in the community since 1916. Kansas City has been undergoing major redevelopments for the past 15 years. Galbrecht says the city may vote to build a better stadium for the Kansas City Royals downtown, but Vineyard residents will still have a short drive to see their team play.
