List Of Villages In Missouri
In Missouri, villages are municipalities which incorporated with a population under 500. If the population is larger than 500, it must incorporate as a city (see List of cities in Missouri). If the population increases beyond 500 after incorporation, a vote may be held to change to a city government, but it is not automatic. In many cases, villages are called "towns", but under Missouri statutes, "towns" do not exist. Villages are governed by a board of trustees. Below is a list of villages in Missouri, arranged in alphabetical order.

“Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.”
—Janet Frame (b. 1924)

“Ezra Pound still lives in a village and his world is a kind of village and people keep explaining things when they live in a village.... I have come not to mind if certain people live in villages and some of my friends still appear to live in villages and a village can be cozy as well as intuitive but must one really keep perpetually explaining and elucidating?”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
“The traveller on the prarie is naturally a hunter, on the head waters of the Missouri and Columbia a trapper, and at the Falls of St. Mary a fisherman.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
