10 SMALLEST Towns in MISSOURI

New Wells should be on this list.

Roaky Comfort Mo.

I think Wittenberg Missouri would qualify. Because everyone got bought out because of flooding. It doesn't exist anymore

Have you ever visited Perry county Missouri ?

The smalls town in Missouri is Evon Missouri

You missed a lot of towns

You need to look behind Yourself more often, a Dog or a Bear, was coming up on you. Didnt hear a word you said.😆

Florida has houses, but most of these are occupied by weekenders that drive up to use Mark Twain Lake.

Little green buildings are trap shootin boxes

Cool video to watch. River bend is close to where I live in Independence. I actually think the city of Sugar Creek has some sort of jurisdiction there from events that have taken place on the land. Somebody owns the land because there are definitely some successful businesses on the land paying someone. It would be interesting to know who actually owns the land and are they the reason why it shows as being a town?

You go to Lakeside but fail to say anything about the location next to one of Missouri’s most popular and important places! Lake of the Ozarks!! And Bagnell Dam! If you don’t talk about the most important features right there, you have lost the context of the town.. you are forgetting your mission pertaining to points of interest.. just sayin’…😂

Are those houses in Champ behind Pville? I drive McKelvey/CC Mill all the time and 141, had no idea there was actual houses...

A family friend is buried there in Dalton at that cemetery. A number of the black people who lived in Dalton were all related to our friend. I think that tree was the location of his grave. I went to the burial there. Big Gary loved Dalton!

My country alone has had two towns die in my lifetime, Hedge City and Forrest Springs

Please wake me up when this video ends...Missouri has much better attractions... most very historical...!!

Krap Missouri, you should look into Hank Williams and Loretta Lynn. See if they didn't stop in at this radio station and introduce themselves. Never know what you might find.

In Southwest Missouri, just outside of Joplin, there is a point where three states, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Missouri meet. There was a marker there. You could walk around it and travel in three states. I used to live a half mile from that point. The large Down Stream Casino was built in that corner of Kansas. I do not know if the marker is still there, but I will go check soon. Also, Arkansas is just about 34 miles from that point.

You should check out Moundville, Bronaugh, and Sheldon also.

Speed missouri

You need to come in to the heart of our state-Fulton

I live in a small town population of 1600 people but 5 Mi south of me is a small town called Passaic population 54 people

My fav is #7 Dalton MO because that's where my mother's side of the family settled after coming over here from Germany in late 1800's. One of my relatives from Dalton area was in the Missouri Militia during Civil War era (sided with the Union instead of the Confederacy) as Chariton county was a divided area re loyalty to blue or grey country at the time. One of my cousins recalled a tale where one fella in the area during that era spent his days in a hollowed out tree near a pond so he wouldn't be hunted down and killed by bushwackers or Confederate raiders, came out only at night to forage. Dalton was a thriving little community, mostly agrarian, at one time but after WW2 many of the younger people left to find opportunity in the larger cities or stayed in them seeking opportunities after wartime employment started to dwindle. If your Dad was a farmer first-born usually inherited the farm so certain larger family members stayed though many migrated out. Much of the land around Dalton was flood plain and my cousins talked about how the floods since the '50's made farming unpredictable enough that government subsidies had to be relied upon rather than avoided. The infamous Flood of '93 really dealt a death blow to the town itself and surrounds as all that remains now are the mill by the NS railroad and structures up on the hill inhabited by the few smart enough not to reside on the floodplain. The north side Main Street buildings fell one by one from old age, minimal maintenance. The one building that outlasted the group on Main Street was the US Post Office where my cousin Pauline Meyer was postmaster many years. She & her husband had to relocate from the family farm on the flood plain to a hilly area 2-3 miles away along Hwy J after Flood of '93. After the water receded many who resided in the flood plain before never came back as your pictures of town south of the tracks depict. I recognized some of the derelict homes you photographed there. There was a book published 2018 about this town: Dalton, Missouri: Looking Back compiled by Lizzy Kalinka and John Henry (Jack) Grotjan, Jr. (ISBN 978-1-943058-12-9). Crazy as it sounds I plan on moving there (Dalton Cemetery) when I croak as that's where many of my & Mom's relatives are and it won't cost thousands to get put in the ground either.

Interesting about the town of Champ and Bill Bangert. He was a good friend of my Dad. I had never heard about the town. Thank you.

The town with just 2 people in it what happens to the town when they die??

If there is no post office it is not a town. I lived at Safe, then went to a school at Highgate one year. Olden days are nice to remember and to think about.

Don't California my Missouri.. if you're a Democrat / Liberal stay out , we dont need your crap or ideology.. KC and STL are already an issue.

I lived outside of a small community of Virginia Missouri west of Butler Missouri. When I there, there was a small store/gas station and a church and a few residential homes. It has been a number of years since I have been by there. Not sure if anything exists anymore.

I bicycled from here in Minneapolis to the bustling metropolis of Tightwad, MO. Population 63 on a good day.

I grew up in Dalton! My cousins lived footsteps away from the old vocational school on the hill. I knew the Hugh's family that owned the property very well. I ran around Dalton all through my years growing up. As I watched this, I told my cousin Chuck Harris. He said he is down there as we speak. His camper is set up just down the hill from the school. They live right beside the cemetery. His father Charles Harris was a grave digger for many years. Note: the cemetery is segregated as well. My Grandmother lived right behind the cemetery. My father still owns that property. I have very fond memories of Dalton.

Hi John! U should go to Wikipedia to Phelps City, Missouri! CHECK THE POPULATION!!!! It’s Unincorporated though

I have traveled through Missouri a few times. This was very interesting. I liked the old couple who had a great view of the river.

You left out Nebo. Which was east southeast of Lebanon, Missouri. The sign was there in 1980s. No real population but my uncle lived there.

When you where in Friedenswald,you show the lake in the distance. What is the large building on the lake shore ?
