Transportation & Accessibility

Cadence is ideally located just east of Platte Purchase Road between NW 100th & 108th Streets. The neighborhood offers easy access to major highways, making commutes to downtown KC or the airport quite manageable. Many lots back up to trees or green space, and the layout includes walk-out lots, which adds both privacy and an elevated feel. For residents, the location balances tranquility with strong access to key roadways.

Shopping & Daily Essentials

Daily errands are well-covered in and around Cadence. The master-planned community includes commercial nodes nearby, and the Northland area has multiple grocery, pharmacy, and retail corridors. While Cadence itself is more residential, its close proximity to existing shopping centers means residents often only need a few minutes’ drive to handle groceries, household goods, and service-type needs.

Within reasonable drive time of Cadence, there are several clinics and healthcare providers serving primary, urgent, and specialty care. Residents generally access larger hospital systems in the Northland or Kansas City metro for more advanced care. Also, maintenance provided villas and community planning suggest that supportive infrastructure (maintenance, amenities, services) is built into the neighborhood’s fabric.
