What it’s like
The place. Archie is a small city in Cass County, Missouri, where the people are younger than in most places and most households own the home they live in. Incomes in town run below the county's, and the cost of a typical home is well above what the incomes alone might suggest. Winters are cold and summers are hot, with a modest amount of snow and a fair amount of rain through the year.
Work. Residents work mainly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in the building trades, and in shops. Across Cass County, some of the largest workplaces are the Raymore-Peculiar R-II Schools, Belton Schools and Chewy. Fewer adults here hold a four-year degree than in many places, and the trip to work is a fairly long one for most people, while only a small number work from home.
Things to do. Water is the main thing close by: Black Creek, Eightmile Creek and Tennessee Creek all run in or beside town, and Mormon Fork is there too. For a longer drive, the Battle of Island Mound State Historic Site is an archaeological and historic site that draws people interested in the area's past.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Archie’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Cass County and the Kansas City, MO-KS metro.
