| East Swope Highlands is a community of mostly single family homes on the East side of Kansas City. Bordered by I-435 on the West and James A Reed on the East. The community also has a few small commercial properties in it. There is a neighborhood association, and several members are very involved in making the community a better place to live. Homes vary in size and structure, and many of the homes are on lots of one to four acres. There are many older beautiful homes built of rock, a plentiful commodity in East Swope Highlands. There are a few properties with horses or equestrian facilities. There is even a real estate company on the corner of Scenic Dr. and E. 67th St. Friendly neighbors often come out and gather together in small groups on the holidays and most neighbors treat each other with respect. Although the Neighborhood Watch is not truly official; many of us take part in watching out for one another and reporting suspicious activity. |
