Merriam

Merriam occupies the low Turkey Creek corridor in eastern Kansas, within the Kansas City metropolitan area. The city lies in Johnson County, where residential streets, shopping districts and parks meet the transport routes linking suburban Kansas with central Kansas City. Turkey Creek is a defining local waterway, and the Turkey Creek Streamway Trail follows its green corridor through Merriam. The community was platted in 1880 and named for Charles Merriam, a local landowner. Its position also places Kansas City’s museums, sports venues and barbecue traditions within the wider urban orbit.
