See the 10 Smallest Missouri Towns that Absolutely Refuse to Die
Population is just a number. Don't tell the 10 smallest Missouri towns that they need a large population to survive. They are still alive and kicking and will not go away and I wouldn't want it any other way.
I grew up in a relatively small Missouri place and I highly admire the small communities that manage to find a way forward even if modern conveniences escape them sometimes.
I found data on the website Missouri Demographics which listed all of the towns/villages/cities in Missouri and ranked them by population. Instead of paying attention to the big places everyone has heard of, let's honor the small but mighty.
10. Triplett, Missouri - Population 9
9. Metz, Missouri - Population 6
8. Plevna, Missouri - Population 5
7. Champ, Missouri - Population 5
6. Corning, Missouri - Population 5
5. Three Creeks, Missouri - Population 4
4. Harwood, Missouri - Population 4
3. Iatan, Missouri - Population 4
2. Bigelow, Missouri - Population 3
1. South Lineville, Missouri - Population 2
Yes, people come and go and these populations will sometimes fluctuate, but these are as of this writing the smallest places in Missouri that people still call home.
