Riverside offers river views, quick commutes, and a friendly, close-knit feel just minutes from Kansas City, Parkville, and North Kansas City in Platte County. Entertainment is easy to find at the waterfront Argosy Casino Hotel & Spa, where dining, shows, and a full-service spa make for a convenient night out or weekend staycation. Families and professionals appreciate the balance of recreation, amenities, and access to major job centers.
Outdoor time comes naturally at E.H. Young Riverfront Park, a favorite for festivals, fireworks, fishing, and wide-open lawns along the Missouri River. The city’s trail system and sports fields are maintained by the City of Riverside’s parks team, highlighted by programs through the Riverside Community Center. Students attend the highly regarded Park Hill School District, with strong academics, arts, and athletics and nearby Park Hill South High School known for wide-ranging extracurricular opportunities. For air travel, Kansas City International Airport’s modern single terminal is an easy drive, streamlining both business trips and family vacations.
Riverside also invests in growth, from revitalized commercial corridors to business parks that bring new employers and conveniences close to home. Housing options range from established neighborhoods with mature trees to newer construction near retail and dining.
