Central to Kansas City and the professional sports teams that call the city home, the City of Raytown offers an abundance of housing, business, shopping and other options.
Closing in on 30,000 residents (29,510 as of 2013), Raytown is, quite literally, named for William Ray, a blacksmith who settled and set up shop at what now is 63rd Street and Raytown Road. Locals called it “Ray’s Town” and, eventually, just “Raytown” after the man that helped get the Jackson County Court to approve a road where commerce and trade was common in what is now the heart of the city.
The Raytown School District, formed in 1903 when eight schools consolidated, now educates more than 9,000 students at 10 elementary campuses, three junior highs and Raytown and Raytown South high schools. The city is also home to Joe Herndon Career Center. In 2014, voters approved $23 million in bonds for school improvements.
Many famous athletes have left Raytown schools for the big time courts and fields, too. Raytown South’s Jason Belser played many seasons for the Kansas City Chiefs, Jevon Crudup suited up for the Detroit Pistons of the NBA and Bobby Dernier played baseball for the Chicago Cubs and Philadelphia Phillies. Over at Raytown, NBA player Tyronn Lue may be the most famous alumni as both an NBA player and coach.
Central to Missouri 350 and the 435 Highway loop, Raytown has achieved a Bronze Level distinction as a “Community for All Ages” as part of its neighborhood revitalization efforts. Its historic downtown and central business district area are also undergoing a streetscape project.
