Platte Woods sits along the Platte River in northwestern Missouri, where wooded bottomlands and suburban streets meet just north of Kansas City. This small Platte County municipality belongs to the Kansas City metropolitan area, yet it retains a distinctly residential scale close to the river corridor. The Platte flows south toward the Missouri River, connecting the community with the floodplain terrain that has long influenced settlement across this part of the state. Platte County was included in the Platte Purchase of 1836, which extended Missouri’s northwestern boundary.
