Independence is a city mostly in, and one of two county seats of, Jackson County, Missouri, United States.[4] It is a satellite city of Kansas City, Missouri, and is the largest suburb on the Missouri side of the Kansas City metropolitan area. In 2020, it had a total population of 123,011, making it the fifth-most populous city in Missouri. A small part of the city extends into Clay County.[5]

Independence is known as the “Queen City of the Trails”[6] because it was a point of departure for the California, Oregon, and Santa Fe Trails. It is the hometown of U.S. President Harry S. Truman, and houses the Harry S. Truman Presidential Library and Museum and the gravesites of Truman and First Lady Bess Truman. It is sacred to the Latter Day Saint movement, as the site of Joseph Smith‘s 1831 Temple Lot, and several Mormon denominations are headquartered in the city.
