What it’s like
The place. Northmoor is a very small city in Platte County, Missouri, with far fewer residents than most towns of its kind. Household incomes run below the county's, and typical home values sit at a level many homeowners would find modest for the Kansas City area. Winters are cold, with January highs near freezing and lows well below it, while summers turn hot, with July highs near the top of the range most of the country sees.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, professional and business services, shops and manufacturing. Platte County has a little more work than it did a year ago, and unemployment across the county is slightly lower than it was then. Among the larger workplaces in Northmoor are K & E Flatwork, a concrete paving business, and Prince Telecom, an electrical and wiring installation contractor.
Things to do. A short drive away, the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art is one of the best known art museums in the region, and the National World War I Memorial is a museum and memorial site. The Kansas River is also a short drive away for time near the water. Sports fans can go a longer drive to Arrowhead Stadium to see a game.
