Welcome to Raytown, Missouri...
Raytown is centrally located within the western half of Jackson County, Missouri. The city is adjacent to the communities of Lee's Summit, Independence, and South Kansas City, Missouri, making it a primary district for business growth. Raytown has its own fire protection, police department and water supply. The schools are a prime asset, focusing on providing a quality education for all Raytown children.

Historically, the area was known as "Ray's Town" due to the landmark location of William Ray's blacksmith shop, located at the intersection of 63rd and Raytown Road. Eventually the area became "Raytown." A marker today stands on the site of his blacksmith shop in his memory.

From its humble beginnings, Raytown has retained its "hometown friendly atmosphere." We hope you will explore this community site to learn more about the City of Raytown.
