There is nothing odd about the growth the City of Peculiar has been experiencing the last few years, with increases in new housing permits, construction and population becoming the norm as more residents retreat to the suburbs of Kansas City and northern Cass County.
In fact, since the 2010 census (4,600 population), Peculiar has gained nearly 200 residents.
As the story goes, settlers to this north-central Cass County area back in 1868 were debating on what to call this newfound town. As they lobbied with the post office for potential names, one asked for something “sort of peculiar.” Soon after, the Postmaster recommended just that: Peculiar, Missouri. And to this day, the name has stuck.
With I-49 slicing diagonally through Peculiar, the city is bordered by Belton and Raymore to the north and Harrisonville to the east, with plenty of room for growth near 211th Street, east to State Route J, west at State Route YY and particularly south of 233rd Street and southwest of I-49/71.
The core of Peculiar has also seen a resurgence as the Downtown Peculiar Arts and Culture District was formed in 2007. The formation and foundation of the arts district has been to drive tourism, promote public art and become a hub of creativity, culture and entrepreneurship through small business enhancement.
The Raymore-Peculiar School District serves the area with elementary students attending Shull or Peculiar elementary schools, Bridle Ridge or Eagle Glen intermediate, Ray-Pec East Middle School and Ray-Pec High School.
