Grandview, Missouri, exhibits a demographic profile categorized as a "Moderate Diversity" community. As of 2022, the city's population of 25,921 consists of a white plurality (43%), a substantial Black population (33%), and a growing Hispanic presence (15%). This racial composition, combined with a median income of $49,779, indicates a diverse, working-class suburban community.

Over the past decade, Grandview has experienced a notable transition in its racial makeup. In 2013, the city was classified as having a "White Plurality" with 46% of the population being white and 37% Black. By 2022, the community shifted towards "Moderate Diversity" with a more balanced distribution among racial groups. The most significant changes include a steady decline in the white population from 46% in 2013 to 43% in 2022, a slight decrease in the Black population from 37% in 2013 to 33% in 2022, and a substantial increase in the Hispanic population from 10% in 2013 to 15% in 2022. Additionally, there has been a gradual increase in the Asian population and those identifying as two or more races.

The demographic changes have occurred alongside fluctuations in median income. Median income decreased from $47,014 in 2013 to $44,919 in 2015, coinciding with an increase in the Black population percentage. From 2015 to 2021, median income showed an overall upward trend, rising to $51,311, paralleling the growth in Hispanic and Asian populations. A slight dip in median income to $49,779 in 2022 occurred as the community continued to diversify. These economic trends suggest that while the increasing diversity may have initially corresponded with some economic challenges, the city has since experienced economic growth alongside its demographic shifts.
