RAYTOWN: PLACES, ORGANIZATIONS AND PRODUCTS
The characters from Mamas Family and The Family sketches lived in a town called Raytown with many businesses, stores, streets, and products, all created just on the show. According to Vicki's Autobiography and the Mama's Family Reunion, Raytown was based on Raytown, Missouri, a suburb of Kansas City. A Missouri license plate was also seen in the episode "Mama Learns To Drive."
