Community Overview
The city of Edgerton, known as the "Southwest Cornerstone" of Johnson County, is conveniently located between US Highway 56 and Interstate 35, approximately 10 miles southwest of Olathe, KS. The city was founded in 1870, and like many eastern Kansas communities, draws on its strong railroad history. In fact, the influence of the railroad became even more pronounced as recently as 2010 when BNSF Railway announced plans to build a $250 million intermodal shipping facility (Logistics Park Kansas City) in Edgerton, which has helped the city experience substantial growth with the creation of over 3,900 jobs, and has also helped Johnson County to become one of the fastest growing counties in the United States. Edgerton and Gardner share a combined school district, USD 231, which is nationally recognized for excellence in education.
