Independence's Electrician, Victorian to Ranch
Independence runs on its own electric company. Independence Power & Light, owned by the city since 1901, serves almost every home in town — not Evergy — so service upgrades are coordinated with IPL, and the Evergy rebates you may have read about don't apply here. The housing runs from Victorians near the Square to postwar ranches, and some of the oldest neighborhoods in the metro are here.
The Truman Home on North Delaware Street is a Victorian, and in Independence it has plenty of company. In Fairmount, more than half the homes were built in 1939 or earlier. Houses that age were wired for a few lights and a radio; today they're carrying central air, a microwave and sometimes a car charger on the same service.
