About Edgerton

Located on the southwestern edge of Johnson County, Edgerton is a quiet community of under two thousand residents in the greater Kansas City area. The town grew out of a historic railroad stop, and freight still drives the local economy today thanks to a massive logistics park on the edge of town. Even with that steady commercial growth, Edgerton keeps the peaceful, unhurried feel of a traditional small town.
